I use multiple PCs and need my notes sync between them. I prefer to use Sticky Notes in Windows 7 other than any other 3rd-party tools. Any ideas?

My solution for you is as below.

You need:

  1. Symbolic link (recommend Link Shell Extension)
  2. Dropbox
  3. The location of the "data" of the notes i.e. in %AppData%\Microsoft\Sticky Notes\StickyNotes.snt (referenced from source)

How to sync the notes:

  1. Go to the notes data file and create a symbolic link
  2. Save the symbolic link in your dropbox folder
  3. Done.

Hope that helps!
