For most people, the quickest and easiest ways to access Samsung Notes on PC is to download it from the Microsoft Store.

2. In the Microsoft Store, search for Samsung Notes.

   
   

3. On the Samsung Notes store page, select the Get button to download the application and begin using it.

   If you don’t see the Get button, and can’t install Samsung Notes, you aren’t alone. This is a common problem faced by many users. If you’ve installed the app before, you may be able to find it in your Library by selecting the icon in the bottom-left and then re-installing it there.

How to Access Samsung Notes Using the Command Prompt

If you can’t download Samsung Notes from the Microsoft Store, you can have Windows download and install it for you. Here’s what to do.

2. In the Command Prompt window, type:

   winget install “Samsung Notes”

   Then press the Enter key.
