Notepad gadget or note editor?
On a sidenote, I normally don’t recommend using a notepad gadget. Sticky notes on a desktop can be useful to remember a few things, but they will often get filled with notes so quickly that managing the notes will become a major pain.
So, what I recommend is to either have a really good to-do list software or a secure notepad editor. One of my favorite editors for is Roboform’s secure Safenote editor. You can organize your notes (which are safely stored and encrypted) in folders and sub-folders. The only downside is that Roboform notes do not allow you to format your text.

Thank you, was looking for this for hours.
yea, this sure is useful but i’d like to comment about the sizes. there seem to be two sizes only which are small and large. it would be great if you could add a medium one. thanks :)
Hey! So I’m new here in this website and I just downloaded this gadget but I cant seem to make it work? When I try to install it, it keeps saying that it’s not a valid gadget package. Any suggestions on how I can make it work?
Miko, are you on Windows 8? It won’t work then
Other than that, I suggest to try a re-download. Please register for on our membership site for the best download experience
