Hi Dark,
you can combine the taskbar icons
right click on the taskbar and select taskbar settings
under "combine taskbar icons" select "always hide labels"
please let me know if you experience any issues

That will affect EVERYTHING and I don't like all my tabs to be grouped into one. However, in the case of sticky notes, it was WAY more convenient for taskbar space when they were all under one tab and would like a way to go back to that for JUST that app if possible.

i'm sorry, I don't know of a way of doing it only for sticky notes, other than only opening the notes list.
you can make the suggestion to the developers using the feedback hub (winkey+F)
or in sticky notes settings -> share feedback.

So why did it work the way we want BEFORE the recent Win 10 1903 update?
Previously, I did not have apps combined on the task bar, but Sticky Notes combined automatically - they are unusable as sticky notes if they just stuff up the taskbar
I survive on a diet of Rum and OneNote. I think I have a problem....

I'm having the same issue. I used to have only one Sticky Notes tab in my taskbar for all notes. Now I have to click 10+ times to open each note because I need to see them all every time. It's frustrating.

Completely agree here with you it is frustrating on the one hand. An even worse side effect for me is that you cannot "exit" the complete Sticky Notes application. Instead you close each note and when you reopen the app again only one note would open, the last one you closed.

The update was installed here on Monday and, although all the notes were combined into one taskbar icon, the taskbar wouldn't auto-hide as long as the Sticky Note app was open. When I hovered over the icon, I got an endless ladder of Sticky Note window titles with no direct way to get to the index.
I fiddled around a bit last night, terminated the app and rebooted to find that my taskbar was auto-hiding properly without Sticky Notes there. When I re-started the Sticky Note app this morning, my heart stopped because I only had one note displayed. A right-click on the icon and selecting "Notes List" brought up the complete list with only one note (seems to be the last note used) actually on the desktop. This isn't as convenient as being able to leave them stuck in various locations on the desktop but it's much better than what I was living with for the past week.
Now if only I could get the notes stop resizing into giant pages....

Open Start > Settings > Apps > Apps & features
Scroll down to Sticky Notes
Select it
Click Advanced options
Chose Terminate or Reset.
The original Windows XP version was simple and reliable. The Windows 10 version has been as buggy as hell from day one.

Yep, it's moronic. I need to find another app now to use for my notes.

I am in the same boat here. I can't use this app now because I need all the notes on the screen at once.
If anyone has a fix or an alternative app, please let me know.
Unfortunately, because I am using a work computer I cant do the powershell reverse, otherwise I would.
It's driving me CRAZY!
Thanks in advance! :)
