If you right-click the .srt file and choose “properties,” the rightmost tab is labeled “previous versions.”  Select the version you want to restore.

Thanks. Managed to recover the important info in the Notepad. Next time, I must save the important information and not rely on StickyNotes which can be erased by the Delete key accidentally.

Very helpful.. The tip itself didn’t work exactly as described because Explorer crashed every time I entered the string.  But it gave me the idea of searching my PC for *.snt, and that turned up a file I could open with Notepad.  Lots of stripping out of formatting to do, but better than trying to remember my To Do  list!

 THANK YOU! I lteraly found EVERYONE of the sticky notes I ever put on here!

i opened thewindow icon program section and in the comment box wrote-” recover sticky notes”- then a line from notes popped up and i clicked on the yes- all 3 notes were restored to my desktop.

Thanks, I already found the same info through other means. I tried to see if I could get the sticky notes app to read the file, but all I got back is the current notes which are blank. I don’t see any other way to restore the deleted notes to the current notes! Looking at it in WordPad I would guess that the file I found is actually in hexadecimal and that the blank spaces are actually numbers in hexadecimal that code for formatting, etc. We are laboriously going through the Alphanumeric portions of the file and recovering the info and then creating new notes, but it will take some time to read through it. There ought to be a better way to recover a deleted note, who hasn’t accidentally deleted a document file?

Also tried that and it would not restore, all we got back is the current file which was blank! Thanks though!

Thank you! wooohooo!

THank you so muchhh you saved my entire list of college ID and passwords that I applied to! you are the hero
