I upgraded to Mojave a few days back. The things I miss badly from my earlier High Sierra are the multiple windows and the stickies that I used to place on one of my windows. From a suggestion on the forum, I did locate a small file called StickiesDatabase in the Library. I am unable to restore my saved stickies into a new window. Do help please.
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
I think you mean the sticky notes that were off screen, and you could 3-finger swipe to get to them. If that is the case, I lost mine too. What I did was go to the Spotlight Search and type in "Dashboard." When I did, it brought me to that screen. It seems to be back for now, and I can 3-finger swipe back and forth. You can also find it in the Applications folder.
Hope this helps!

Greetings, Dr Prem.
I see that you're missing the use of sticky notes and multiple windows since upgrading your MacBook Air to macOS Mojave. I'm happy to help.
These features are still present on macOS Mojave. Here are the articles on how to use them.
If this information doesn't resolve your issue, please provide further detail on what is happening.
Take care!
Thank you for getting back to us, Dr Prem. It's appreciated. You're wondering now how to get back the stickies you've lost. I'm happy to help with that.
How to use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac -- If you made a backup of your MacBook Air while those stickies were present, you can restore them to the window you'd like.
Cheers!
Thanks Sterling for the response. However, I am unable to recover the earlier stickies notes in my previous OS (High Sierra). Any suggestions to recover the same and place them on the new desktop space (+ on Mission control) would be helpful..!!
John! Thank you so much! This worked for me, hopefully Dr Prem sees this and gets his post-its back as well. Life-saver. Now to take a snag-it of all of them.
Not sure why Apple seems intent on getting rid of or making this neat little function harder to access. 😐
this is not helpful at all..
That was a awesome suggestion John.....All I did was go to the Launchpad and Click on Dashboard to access the same...And Lo...behold...All the stickies were back.. Thanks a swell pal..!!!
Thank you!
Thank you! I've been looking for this "simple" solution everywhere.
Stickies not seen after upgradation to Mojave
