why is sticky notes launching on startup, unnecessary bloat, lack of options / bad programing
Apparently if you go here in regedit (registry editor) which is the library of your pc inner workings dangerous stuff so make backups or so and even then im not sure u are fully covered: (Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PenWorkspace\Notes)
To disable sticky notes from launching on startup apparently we need to disable or set to from 1 to 0 the "LaunchOnNextUserSeassion"
How is this not an option inside the sticky notes up is just imma chalk it up to microsoft predatory tactics trickling down to their apps
