Sticky Notes won't close, delete or be modified.

[delorfinde]

I've got four sticky notes that I'm currently modifying. One of them, I deleted a large amount of text from it. When I turned my computer on today, the old version was there as well. I tried to delete it, but my computer is treating it like it's a part of the desktop background and not a note. Two of the other notes are doing the same thing. When I reopen the Sticky Notes gadget my newer versions open too, but on top of the others. I can't move the others, delete them, anything.

My laptop is less than a week old, with a 6GB RAM, 750GB hard drive, and 2.5GHz + Turbo processor, so I'm pretty sure it's not the problem. I just installed a new video editing software (Corel VideoStudio Pro X4), and then had this problem, so wondering if the two are connected.

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to feel like a total moron now when I admit I worked out what the problem was - I'd saved a screenshot of my background as a picture to show a friend, and my laptop had added it to my wallpaper slideshow, but I put the laptop on battery power so it paused the slideshow, otherwise I would have worked it out sooner. Therefore, I genuinely DID have pictures of sticky notes as my background... solved by deleting said picture from 'wallpapers'. Yes, I'm an idiot...
