В Windows 11 и 10 присутствует встроенное полезное приложение — «Записки», позволяющее создавать заметки на рабочем столе Windows 10, хранить их, синхронизировать с другими устройствами, не только Windows, но и Android, iPhone или Mac.
В этом обзоре подробно о функциях приложения «Записки», работе с заметками на рабочем столе и дополнительных нюансах, которые могут оказаться полезными в контексте рассматриваемой темы. Обновление: появилась новая версия приложения Sticky Notes (Записки), являющаяся частью OneNote.
Как было отмечено выше, приложение «Записки» является встроенным в Windows 11/10, но, если вы не можете найти его в меню Пуск или через поиск на панели задач, возможно оно было удалено. Чтобы скачать заметки для рабочего стола Windows 10 от Microsoft, используйте официальный магазин Microsoft Store, в нём приложение называется Microsoft Sticky Notes.
Использование заметок на рабочем столе с помощью приложения «Записки»
Чтобы начать пользоваться встроенными заметками Windows 11/10, какие-либо особенные навыки не потребуются, достаточно будет сделать одно из:
- Запустить приложение «Записки» и создать новую заметку на рабочем столе: можно использовать простое форматирование текста, добавление изображений.
- Нажать правой кнопкой мыши по значку приложения «Записки» в меню «Пуск» или, к примеру, на панели задач, если вы решите закрепить значок там (через раздел «Дополнительно» в контекстном меню), и выбрать один из пунктов «Создать заметку», «Список заметок» (показывает одно окно, в котором собраны все ваши заметки), «Показать все заметки» (все заметки отображаются по отдельности на рабочем столе).
Теперь о некоторых базовых функциях и особенностях работы заметок:
- При закрытии заметки она не удаляется, а просто убирается с рабочего стола и остаётся доступной в списке заметок.
- Удаление заметки можно выполнить в её меню. Там же можно открыть список всех заметок или изменить цвет заметки со стандартного жёлтого на один из дополнительных 6 цветов.
- При редактировании заметок работают стандартные сочетания клавиш: вставка и копирование (в том числе для изображений), изменение стиля текста (например, Ctrl+B для полужирного), отмена последнего действия (Ctrl+Z). А для удаления активной заметки можно использовать Ctrl+D.
- При уменьшении размера заметки на рабочем столе (с помощью мыши), второстепенные элементы, такие как фото, скрываются, как на скриншоте ниже.
- Если у вас много заметок, то открыв список заметок (например, через контекстное меню ярлыка приложения «Записки»), вы сможете легко выполнить поиск по ним.
Как итог, в случаях, когда нужно что-то быстро записать и не потерять: номер телефона или внезапно пришедшую мысль или другую информацию, встроенные записи Windows 10 — могут быть отличным решением для этой цели.
Синхронизация и работа с записками Windows на других устройствах
Если вам требуется иметь доступ к заметкам на рабочем столе Windows 11/10 не на одном компьютере или ноутбуке, но и на других устройствах, в том числе Android и iPhone, прежде всего убедитесь, что в настройках приложения «Записки» используется ваша учётная запись Майкрософт — это необходимо для синхронизации.
Доступ к запискам с других устройств возможен следующими методами:
То есть почти все продукты Microsoft, имеющие отношение к производительности и организации дел имеют и доступ к заметкам на рабочем столе, из исключений — разве что приложение Microsoft To Do, где такой возможности мне найти не удалось.
Возможно, если вы уже регулярно используете приложение «Записки» в Windows, вы сможете дополнить список его возможностей или приёмов использования в комментариях — будет полезно и мне и другим читателям.
Classic Sticky Notes
для Windows
Начиная с обновления Windows 10 Anniversary Update, компания Microsoft заменила классическое приложение Sticky Notes для рабочего стола на универсальное приложение. Для многих пользователей классическое приложение для рабочего стола является более предпочтительным вариантом, поскольку оно работает шустрее, быстрее запускается и не имеет интеграции с Cortana. Поэтому и было разработано приложение Classic Sticky Notes для Windows 11 и Windows 10. Этот пакет полностью поддерживает Windows 11, а также Windows 10 32-bit и Windows 10 64-bit.
Многие предпочитают старое доброе классическое приложение Sticky Notes, поскольку оно потребляет значительно меньше системных ресурсов. Разница в производительности особенно заметна на менее мощном оборудовании, таком как процессоры Atom и Celeron. Сами заметки также немного меньше, поэтому пользователям больше нравится их компактный вид. Присутствует возможность закреплять заметки у любом месте рабочего стола, менять цвет стикеров, имеется поддержка эмодзи.

How to Launch Sticky Notes

Windows Doesn’t Sync Your Sticky Notes, But You Can Back Them Up
Microsoft transformed the Sticky Notes app in with Windows 10’s Anniversary Update. The new Sticky Notes app supports pen input and offers reminders and other «insights», thanks to Cortana. It’s a convenient, lightweight alternative to OneNote for taking quick notes.
How to Launch Sticky Notes
The Sticky Notes app is like any other application included with Windows 10. You can launch it by opening the Start menu, searching for «Sticky Notes», and clicking the shortcut. Once launched, you can right-click the Sticky Notes icon and select «Pin to Taskbar» if you plan to use it frequently.
Sticky Notes can also be launched from the Windows Ink Workspace, if you have a Windows device with a pen. Click or tap the ink icon on your taskbar and select «Sticky Notes». To show the Windows Ink Workspace button if you can’t see it, right-click your taskbar and select «Show Windows Ink Workspace Button».
Sticky Notes 101
The app is simple to use. By default, you’ll see a yellow sticky note. You can type whatever you want into the note and Windows will save your note for later.
To create a new note, click the «+» button. To delete the current note, click the trash can button. To change the color of a note, click the «…» menu button and select one of the color circles.
These windows can be moved or resized as normal. Just click-and-drag or touch-and-drag the title bar to move them, or click-and-drag or touch-and-drag a corner of the window to resize them.
Move note windows around on your desktop by clicking and dragging (or touching and dragging) the title bar. You can also resize notes by clicking and dragging or touching and dragging at a corner, making them as small or large as you like.
Writing With a Pen
If your Windows device has a pen or stylus, you can draw or write notes directly in a sticky note. You just have to start with an empty note—every note can either contain typed text or something drawn with the stylus, but not both.
Getting Insights
Sticky Notes works along with Cortana, Windows 10’s integrated virtual assistant, to provide more information.
This feature is called «Insights», and it’s enabled by default. To check if Insights are enabled, click the «…» menu icon in a note and click the gear-shaped settings icon at the bottom left corner of the note. Ensure «Enable Insights» is set to «On» if you want to use this feature.
When you type or write something like a flight number—for example, «AA1234»— it will turn blue. This works both for typed text and for handwritten text you wrote with a pen. Click or tap the blue text to see more information.
For example, you could write a flight number and then click or tap it in the note to view up-to-date flight tracking information.
Sticky Notes are also integrated with Cortana for reminders. This is just another type of «insight». When you type something with a time or date, the time or date will turn blue and you can click or tap it to set a reminder.
For example, let’s say you type or write «Lunch at 12:30» or «Go shopping tomorrow» in a note. «12:30» or «tomorrow» will turn blue. Click or tap it and Sticky Notes will ask if you want to create a reminder. Select «Add Reminder» and it will create a Cortana reminder about this event.
You can even get these reminders on your phone if you install the Cortana app for iPhone or Android phone and sign in with the same Microsoft account you use on your PC.
Sticky Notes offers other insights, too. It will automatically detect the following things, whether you type them with your keyboard or write them with a pen:
- Phone numbers: Call phone numbers like «1-800-123-4567» using Skype.
- Email addresses: Compose emails to email addreses like «bob@example.com».
- Web addresses: Open web addresses like «www.howtogeek.com» with your web browser.
- Physical addresses: View the location of a street address like «123 Fake Street, California 12345» and you can view its location and get directions via the Maps app.
- Stock symbols: View the performance of stock symbols like «$MSFT».
Some of these features may only work in certain countries at the moment, but Microsoft is extending them to new languages and countries with the Creators Update. Expect Microsoft to continue adding Insights and continue expanding the available Insights to more people in the future.
Windows Doesn’t Sync Your Sticky Notes, But You Can Back Them Up
As of Windows 10’s Anniversary Update, Sticky Notes don’t sync between your different Windows 10 devices. They’re stored on your computer in a local database for the Sticky Notes app. You can back up your Sticky Notes and restore them on a different PC, but you have to do that yourself.
Sticky Notes are ideal for quick, transient notes you don’t want to keep for a while. For more complex notes, notes you want to keep for a long time, and notes you just want to sync between your devices, you’ll want to use a more full-featured note-taking app.
For example, Microsoft’s own OneNote is included with Windows 10 and is very capable. But Sticky Notes is a convenient, lightweight alternative if you just want to jot down a phone number without going into your OneNote notebook.
On Windows 10, Sticky Notes is an experience that allows you to create notes rather than sticking pieces of papers around the monitor or across your desk.
The app has been around since Windows Vista, but starting with the October 2018 Update (version 1809), Windows 10 introduces Sticky Notes 3.0 with an improved design (retaining the familiar look and feel) and a new home experience to organize and find all your notes. Also, this new version introduces the ability to sync your notes to the cloud, which allows you to access your notes across devices, including to your Android phone.
In this Windows 10 guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to get started using Sticky Notes 3.0 across devices.

- How to use Sticky Notes on Windows 10
- How to use Sticky Notes with keyboard shortcuts
- How to enable Sticky Notes insights
- How to export Sticky Notes content
- How to manage delete Sticky Notes settings
- How to sync Sticky Notes with Android
How to connect Sticky Notes with your Microsoft account
Starting with this version, you can sign in to Sticky Notes using your Microsoft account to sync your notes across your devices and keep them backed up in the cloud. Here’s how:
- Open Start.
- Search for Sticky Notes, click the top result to open the experience.Quick Tip: The new version of Sticky Notes is compatible with Windows 10 version 1803 (April 2018 Update) and later. If you can’t find the app on your installation, you can download it from the Microsoft Store.
- Click the Settings (gear) button in the top-right corner.
- Click the Sign in button. (Or the Sign out button if you want to stop syncing your notes.)
- Select the Microsoft account you’re using on Windows 10.
- Click the Continue button.
Once you’ve completed the steps, your notes will upload to your Microsoft account, and they will sync across devices (including to your Android phone).
Using a Microsoft account is a requirement to backup and sync your notes, but it’s not a mandatory step to use the app. However, if you start using the app without signing in, and then you link your Microsoft account your notes will upload to the cloud, and if you sign out your notes will no longer be available unless you sign back in.
