KB00015 - Performing a manual or silent installation of Stickies

Manual install

If you'd like to install Stickies manually, it's a simple thing to do.

First you'll need to get the files which comprise Stickies. You can do this one of two ways:

Download the installer for the latest release and run it. Then copy the files it installs
Download the installer for the latest release, and run it with the command line parameter -extract

To perform an install manually:

Copy the file stickies.exe to c:\program files (x86)\stickies
Copy stickies.chm there if you'd like to use the help file
Create a shortcut to the above stickies.exe file in the Startup program group

Silent install

This batch file will achieve pretty much the above - it also has provision for copying in a default stickies.db, so your users will get the settings defined in that as default, rather than the program default options:

set source=\\server01\installs\stickies set target=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\stickies md %target% copy /y "%source%\stickies.chm" "%target%" copy /y "%source%\stickies.exe" "%target%" copy /y "%source%\stickies.lnk" "%startup%" md "%appdata%\stickies" if exist "%appdata%\stickies\stickies.db" goto skip copy "%source%\stickies.db" "%appdata%\stickies" :skip "%startup%\stickies.lnk"
