| How To Retrieve Back The Lost Notes, After Closing Vista's Sidebar Notes Gadget. |
|
| If you close the Vista Notes Gadget by mistake, you will lose all the important notings which you may have made on the Notes Gadget. |
|
| Suvajit Pal, Microsoft MVP, has suggested the following solution, to try and get back the notes. |
|
| If you have Volume Shadow Copy turned on and if you have a recent System Restore Point created or available, of a point, before you closed the Notes gadget, then look for Previous Version of the Settings.ini file for the Sidebar. You can do so at |
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar |
Next, Exit Windows Sidebar.
Restore Previous Version of the file Settings.ini.
Open the file in Notepad.
There will be some sections [Section 1] [Section 2] etc.
Look for PrivateSetting_GadgetName variable value, the one you require should end with Notes.gadget.
Your notes will be under that Section as :
0="<first note>"
1="<second note>"
and so on. |
|
| Now, if you manage to get a previous version and all the Notes intact then you can directly start the WIndows Sidebar and all your previous notes will be available. |
| |
| However if you have a Previous Version of the Settings.ini file or if it's a very old copy and all your notes are outdated, then there's no way to get the previous notes back. |
