Microsoft Windows Sticky Notes Data Format | Microsoft | Misc Files |
The SNT (Sticky Notes) file extension is a text-based format that can be used to store important notes and reminders. It is commonly associated with the Microsoft Windows Sticky Notes software that allows users to keep track of tasks and to-dos by taking advantage of the graphical user interface. An SNT file is created in a human-readable plain text format, meaning it can be manually edited in any plain text editor such as Notepad, or WordPad.
Structure and Content of SNT Files
An SNT data file is built in an extensible Markup Language (XML) structure that including a text header and footer, as well as a body section, which includes an embedded Rich Text Format (RTF) document containing the note details. Each note file contains various fields that contain information about the note's creation date, reminder date, and author. In addition to the basic text data, a note may also include icons, images, fonts, colors, and other formatting elements.
The various notes are stored in a folder named "StickyNotes" typically located under the user's profile directory in Windows. Other similar text file extensions include TXT, TEX, and RTF.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .SNT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .SNT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .SNT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .SNT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .SNT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .SNT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .SNT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .SNT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .SNT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .SNT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
