Hello Everyone,
I'm attempting to change the location for where Sticky Notes (build 1709) saves it's data file. I've been able to achieve this on the Local drive but not across a network share. I've check that permissions are set and that the net share is reachable.
When done locally, Sticky Notes opens just fine after moving the "plum.sqlite" file and creating a symlink back to where the file was previously located. When done to a network share Sticky Notes will crash when attempting to open with
no pop-up error. I've check the eventvwr and this is the error it logged:
Faulting application name: Microsoft.Notes.exe, version: 2.1.18.0, time stamp: 0x5aba81d8
Faulting module name: Windows.UI.Xaml.dll, version: 10.0.16299.248, time stamp: 0xc27fa098

I'm not sure where the issue may lie here but just for reference here's the script I put together for creating the symlink and shared folder:
$path = "$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\"
$path1 = "P:\Sticky_Notes\"
If(!(test-path $path1))
{
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $path1
}
$from = $path
$to = $path1
if(!(Test-Path $to))
{
New-Item -Path $to -ItemType Directory -PathType Container -Force | Out-Null
}
Move-Item $from $to
New-Item -Path $path -ItemType SymbolicLink -Value P:\Sticky_Notes\LocalState
The script completes successfully, but sticky notes wont open.
I know that in prior versions of Sticky notes (not the Metro Style App) this was possible by doing the same process with the ".snt" file. Any help here would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
