[ltsb, 1809] Sticky Notes

[Duke5A]

I pre-build my images in virtual machines still (old habits die hard) and discovered while building an image out of LTSC 1809 that the method in which I used to get Sticky Notes working in LTSB 1607 has stopped working.

 

The old way involved finding LTSB 2015 media, extracting and moving the following files:

 

• StikyNot.exe >> .\Windows\System32
  
• StikyNote.exe.mui >> .\Windows\System32\EN-US
  
• 
  

 

The above worked great until a DLL that was relied on was changed in the new Windows release. After messing around I got it to work again and placed it all in it's own folder under 'Program Files' along with the old DLL.

 

• StikyNot.exe >> .\Program Files\Sticky Notes\StikyNot.exe
  
• StikyNot.exe >> .\Program Files\Sticky Notes\SNTSearch.dll
  
• StikyNot.exe >> .\Program Files\Sticky Notes\dui70.dll
  
• StikyNot.exe >> .\Program Files\Sticky Notes\en-us\sntsearch.dll.mui
  
• StikyNot.exe >> .\Program Files\Sticky Notes\en-us\StikyNot.exe.mui
  
• 
  

 

I know there is a classic version out there, but I'm not a fan of using third party software that's not from major developers in my base images.

Hi,

 

You were successful in installing the sticky notes for windows 10 LTSC 1809. You had mentioned in this is forum. However i could not get it correct. Could you please mention the steps to do it.

 

Also from where did you extract the required files?.

 

Your help is much appreciated. as this is very important for me.

I used the older WinAero version for our LTSB machines, which did not work in LTSC.

 

I found some info here...

The new version seems to work ok, however I do not deploy images as we are a small school and install manually instead.

 

You may be able to use the files it creates on install though.

 

YMMV - UAYOR

I've attached a 7-Zip archive with everything needed. Just unzip into '.\Program Files' or some other place. The files themselves were pulled from 2015 LTSB media.

 

Cheers!
