    There were couple of discussions here. In brief, Notes shall appear soon. Try to restart. Check for another updates. Or just wait for a while.

      Six (!) years later, same problem after updating to Win11 and all my threaded comments are replaced by these useless Notes! None of the silly "solutions" work, updating again didn't help, and I need the content of these formerly threaded comments and their dates. 

      I am furious, and I need a fix asap.

      SergeiBaklan  do you know what is the properties value for the new Threaded comment box . I am working on VBA scripting and my scripts are looking for the old Comment box (which is note now). I need to know the properties for the new Threaded Comment box. 

       

      Old comment Box properties vaue = .Comment.Shape.AlternativeText

       

      Is there any way i can get it?
