Where Sticky Notes are saved in Windows 10 1607 - windows-10

It seems like Sticky Notes are no longer saved in %AppData%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\
I even did a search for *.SNT with no results.
It seems like Microsoft have changed the way Windows handles Notes. Anyone know where the notes are saved now and how to backup/restore them?

Use this document to transfer Sticky Notes data file StickyNotes.snt to the new format
http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/recover-backup-sticky-notes-data-file-windows-10/
Restore:
%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState
Close Sticky Notes
Create a new folder named Legacy
Under the Legacy folder, copy your
existing StickyNotes.snt, and rename it to ThresholdNotes.snt
Start the Sticky Notes app. It reads the legacy .snt file and
transfers the content to the database file automatically.
Backup
just backup following file.
%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\plum.sqlite

It appears Microsoft now stores them in a SQLite database file called plum.sqlite located here:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\plum.sqlite

It depends on the version of Windows 10 you're using. Starting with Windows 10 Anniversary Update version 1607, Sticky Notes is storing its data in the following directory:
%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe
If your Windows 10 has an older version, it is storing the date in the following directory:
%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\StickyNotes\StickyNotes.snt

Here what i found. C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\TempState
There is snapshot of your sticky note in .png format. Open it and create your new note.

Sticky notes in Windows 10 are stored here:
C:\Users\"Username"\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Sticky Notes
If you want to restore your sticky notes from earlier versions of windwos, just copy the .snt file and place it in the above location.
N.B: Replace only if you don't have any new notes in Windows 10!

If at all you can't find .snt folder and above mentioned answers don't work for you. you can simply take plum.sqlite file and read it online or sqlite editor.
for online you can refer to http://inloop.github.io/sqlite-viewer/ link and browse the url as C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState
and pick sql lite file and execute it. Post executing select Note and you will find all rows corresponding to each sticky notes you have lost. Select the Text column and copy content, you will find all your data there.
ENJOY !!!!

In windows 10 you can recover in this way, there is no .snt file
Start Run
Go to this %LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe
Copy this folder Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe
Replace it with new Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe
Check your sticky notes now, you will get all your data

It worked for me when HDD with win8.1 crashed and my new HDD has win10.
Important to know
- Create Legacy folder mentioned in this link.
- Remember to rename the StickyNotes.snt to ThresholdNotes.snt.
- Restart the app

sorry, we couldn't find ABC.xism'. is it possible it was moved or deleted?

I have two files:
Listing Database Sheet PRO version quick - SCRAP3.xism
Copy of Listing Database Sheet PRO version quick - SCRAP - testing the script PRO19
Both are on my OneDrive folder.
As I don't need the SCRAP3 file, I want to move it to a folder I called "old versions" that is not on the OneDrive, but on my C drive.
After I moved it, any time I try to open:
Copy of Listing Database Sheet PRO version quick - SCRAP - testing the script PRO19
... this error message pops up:
sorry, we couldn't find 'https://d.docs.live.net/dc01971bce3b143a/Buisiness/Listings Folders/2018-2019/Listing Database Sheet PRO version quick - SCRAP3.xlsm'. is it possible it was moved or deleted?
Then if I click OK a second one does pop up... I click OK then the file works as expected without any issues whatsoever.
How can I know if they are linked in some way?
Although the file opens and works properly I just want to know what causes the prompt and how to have it solved.

APEX: Read uploaded excel file with as_read_xlsx

As far as I understand, APEX 5.1 does not support Excel files to be loaded into tables.
I found this package that seems to make it possible to SELECT from Excel files, but it does not show how to use it with, for example, files loaded via the "File Browse" Item.
Now, I am very new to this environment, so please explain it from the beginning.
What I did is I upload the package script to the SQL workshop and executed it, without errors. But now?
APEX 5.1 doesn't support it out of the box, but you can use the EXCEL2COLLECTION plugin (available here).
It is very straightforward, just create a file browse page item with an upload button which calls an onsubmit process (e.g. CreateCollection) of type Excel2Collection[Plug In] - specify the file browse item, a collection name and the CSV separator, then you can do as you please with the data (e.g. you may want to run some validations on the data then insert it into a table where you can access it as normal).

File association and thumbnail preview in Windows 10

I have created an application and associated on registry a file extension on Windows 10, so when you double click a file associated with my extension, it opens my app with the file as parameter.
Now, I want the files associated to my application to behave in Windows 10 just like images - I mean, having a thumbnail preview, so when the user selects "large icons", he would be able to see a preview of the file.
I wonder how can I do it. What kind of metadata my file should have so Windows would recognize it and show a preview. Of course, I don't want just large icons, I want a file preview just like image files.
It isn't hard for me to generate a preview bitmap and integrate it to the file format I created (or even to change the file format completely, since I didn't publish anything yet), but how would windows recognize it? Is this even possible?
Thanks in advance
After some research, I found a sample code that does exactly what I need. It creates a thumbnail provider, which have access to the file's contents (binary), and then I can use it to generate the thumbnail of the file.
The sample that creates a IThumbnailProvider can be found here:
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/CppShellExtThumbnailHandler-32399b35/view/SourceCode#content
The project should generate a dll, that we should register on Windows. It might be done using the following lines:
system32/regsvr32 ThumbnailProviderx64.dll
syswow64/regsvr32 ThumbnailProviderx86.dll
unregistering is like this:
system32/regsvr32 /u ThumbnailProviderx64.dll
syswow64/regsvr32 /u ThumbnailProviderx86.dll
Another nice sample could be found at:

How can i change the creation date of any nsf?

I need to change the creation date of an nsf.
How do i proceed with it???
i searched and found out that database.Created is an >> read-only value and cannot be changed.
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/domhelp/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.designer.domino.main.doc%2FH_CREATED_PROPERTY_DB.html
Is there any way by which i can do so????
Thanks In Advance.
If you change the Database to a template by changing the file extension to .ntf, and then create a new database based on that template, that will change the created date
UPDATE:
You can also accomplish this using the "Database > New Copy" option (or Application > New Copy in version 8.x)
If you create an operating system copy of the file, the Notes creation date should remain the same. Otherwise, you can't have a creation date earlier than today.
As I don't think this is in general a good idea I didn't test this, but it might work :
Shutdown the server.
then make a OS copy of the NSF you want to manipulate to your PC.
Change date/time of your local PC.
Start Notes, make a copy.
Copy this new NSF back to your server (OS copy).

How to change root directory of J2ME sun emulator?

I need to change the default root directory of sun mobile emulator. I know that you can create and delete roots in the appdb/filesysytem directory, but I need the root to be outside that directory lets say at my hard drive C:/root , is it possible? Thanks, hope you can help me.
I think the root folder is a property of Device configuration.
If you are working with the toolkit that ships with Netbeans looks for an ini file in the same directory where you found the appdb directory.
My best guss is tmp_jwc_properties.ini is the file you need. I haven't yet tried it though.
update
I spent some time trying to do this. But with no success so far.
The property we need to change is probably system.storage_root .
But the ini file gets over written with original values every time the IDE is restarted.
Found the original source of this temporary file in
My-NetBeans-path\mobility\Java_ME_platform_SDK_3.0\runtimes\cldc-hi-javafx\bin\jwc_properties.ini
As far as I could figure out, the IDE loads settings from this file and adds default values for settings that are not specified in this file.
I'm also new to these tool kits. Please leave a response here if you succeed in doing this.
