How to undo a "scheduled folder"

Anonymous

So, on my phone, I accidentally made one of my folders "scheduled."  Now that folder has a clock next to it's name instead of a folder icon.  I don't know what I did to make that happen.  I don't know what a "scheduled" folder is.  I don't know what benefits I get from having a "scheduled" folder, but I don't want it to be that way.  In fact, I attempted to delete the folder on the outlook.com web app, but the "scheduled" folder continues to appear on my Android Outlook (formerly Acompli) app.  

Can anyone tell me how to undo what I've done?  And can anyone point me to any documentation which would explain what a "scheduled" folder is and why I might want one?

    That worked for me too !  I have Windows 10 and Outlook on my computer.  On Outlook, I made a right click on the specific file with the clock and chose 'Move to Folder' and I chose the basket.  I then immidiately emptied the basket and ... IT IS GONE !!!  After more than 2 years, this worked.  I checked on the web version of Hotmail ... And the file is no longer :)

    THANKS jones223344

    This worked for me as well.  Little tricky getting the folder emptied before it could escape.  I had given up, but am very happy to see this stupid folder is finally gone.

    Hello,

    I raised a ticket with Microsoft App Support (which was very helpful).  Their recommendations were to try resetting the app and then to try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.  The uninstall and reinstall work and corrected the issue.

    I deleted my outlook on my android phone and reinstalled it, I still have the schedule by the folder. When I send emails to the folder it ask me to set a schedule time. :( 

    I cannot get the schedule off.
