Sticky Notes in Windows 7 - where are the files actually stored, ie, how can I move the content to another computer?
4 Answers
All notes are stored in one file:
%AppData%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\StickyNotes.snt
or possibly
%AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\StickyNotes.snt
Note that this isn't a text file, and it contains both current notes and vestiges of old notes; i.e. it's not exactly useful for sharing stuff.

AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\stickynotes.snt
At least in Win 7, you must run Sticky Notes first to create the directory and file. Note that AppData is a hidden directory.
Copy and paste the file, and the next time you run Sticky Notes your old notes will appear.

In Windows 7, notes are stored in C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\ folder in StickyNotes.snt file. This file can be copied to a different profile in the same machine or to different machines.

For Windows 7 either 32 or 64 bit OS it is stored in the following path (replace username with actual username)
c:\users\***username***\appdata\roaming\microsoft\sticky notes\stickynotes.snt
Copy the file and paste in to the other user's profile.
