    Is there any way to change the settings in NOTES so that it alerts you before you delete a note?

    Id love to have one of those "are you sure" dialogue boxes pop up as ive recently and accidentally deleted a couple of important notes.

    Thanks!

    not that I know of.

    They are simple post it notes. Of course you can save them and stuff.

    I prefer to use OneNote for scribbling and notes though. You can link them back to Outlook tasks/appointments or vice versa.

    You should use Tasks to make important notes.
