How to Install Sticky Notes to Windows Server 2012

Being member of Windows Server Operating Systems family, Windows Server 2012 doesn’t offer Sticky Notes feature as Windows Client OS offers. But here is a tweak to enable Sticky Notes feature in Windows Server 2012.
First of all, enable Desktop Experience feature from server manager.
1. Go to Server Manager -> Local Server -> Add roles and features

2. From features option windows, select these features:
  • User Interfaces and Infrastructure
  • Desktop Experience

Once these features are installed, restart the machine.
3. Download StickyNotes.rar file and extract it. (For 64bit OS, use StickyFiles64 and for 32bit OS use StickyFiles86).
4. Create a folder “Sticky Notes” in Program Files. Copy StikyNot.exe and slc.dll files in it and create a folder “en-US” and copy StikyNot.exe.mui file in it.
Folder Hierarchy should be:
Program Files\Sticky Notes\en-US -> StikyNot.exe.mui
Program Files\Sticky Notes\ -> StikyNot.exe and slc.dll
Files should look like this:

6. Copy SNTSearch.dll.mui in System32\en-US (C:\Windows\System32\en-US)
