If you all can take out the issues you had with Windows Vista out of your mind for a minute and think hard, you’ll remember it had a very useful sidebar gadget called Notes. It let you quickly scribble down ideas, phone numbers and all sorts of texts and looked just like real sticky notes. It also had a few options for different fonts, font sizes, and stick note color.
Windows 7 comes with a new sticky notes application to replace the notes gadget but it sits in your taskbar when running hence taking up valuable space. For multiple notes, it starts new instances of sticky notes unlike the gadget which gave previous and next options for multiple notes.
Windows 7 Sticky Notes
Windows Vista Notes Gadget
I really liked the Notes gadget in Vista, so I extracted the folder and repacked it as a .gadget file so that it can be installed in Windows 7. I find it better to use than the Sticky Notes app in Windows 7.
You can download it below. Just run it and install. It’ll pop up in your desktop gadgets in Windows 7.
Really its worth. thanks
That page doesn’t exist. ^^
The link is working fine now

Hi i have problem to install it it doen`t have instalation files…. when i extract it has en-US, file imiges and some icons how to install it please help. :)
You don’t have to extract it. Just double click it and it should install.
If i click on it winrar opens?
How can i install this?
That’s odd. It should show the install dialog box when you open it. Try right clicking and selecting open. Also check if the downloaded file has an extension of .gadget
I am having the same pbls. The file ext is .zip No install dialog box appears.
OH thanks i had an winrar icon because of that i extract it…. Big thanks and windows 7 rocks:P

Check your desktop gadgets library if the gadget is showing up in there. If it is, double click it, or drag it out to the desktop to show it.
You're welcome :)
You're welcome :)
Check your desktop gadgets gallery by right clicking on the Windows 7 desktop and clicking on gadgets. If it shows in there, drag it out to the desktop.
