When I open any appointment in outlook Calendar I have to save it before closing if I have locked my PC in between. Even If I did not change anything (applies to any invite also empty freshly created ones and also applies when outlook is started in safe mode + also applies on different PC / different account)

[![](https://learn-attachment.microsoft.com/api/attachments/20b86f9d-1cc2-4011-8f4d-a64e9f945f58?platform=QnASteps to reproduce:

  1. Open Outlook calendar, and open any appointment
  2. Put laptop to lock mode (windows key + L)
  3. Log in again
  4. Click the 'X' icon to close the appointment
  5. Outlook will pop up an alert box "Want to save your changes? Yes | No | Cancel " and the user has to select something.](https://learn-attachment.microsoft.com/api/attachments/20b86f9d-1cc2-4011-8f4d-a64e9f945f58?platform=QnA&fud_access=wJJIheezUklbAN2ppeDns8cDNpYs3nCYjgitr%2bfFBh2dqlqMuW7np3F6Utp%2fKMltnRRYFtVjOMO5tpbpW9UyRAwvLeec5emAPixgq9ta07Dgnp2aq5eJbnfd%2fU3qhn54gvgJwJvybOaDZLdxxWbmUU55lRVcs%2b2rsZqD5C%2f2ugIy6sqE3bmcGNiEPEvYKI16fklw5WYaFGrnASySzjzYPBMvt%2bVOvAQMf93S5Ko5apovha8xkf2t4FEpnnplUjx6vzNpK1AJ%2bm5J3PVtyfBv2Ngxo%2bKQEU%2b1bEbIrW6CGfvnpbcta1O6MDU7%2b9Ea77rcFd7uju0GTB3L41UvMQuArmQC6FPPSvSN6qLyVexBhQGTMqZUIG5uwLawp5kn016qCxHiiHVoGPOhOPlZjc2pXoVl6o5NdZl4BiPgXi2mF4g%3d "filestore.community.support.microsoft.com")

Disabling the weather information, scaling equal, new profile did not help for me, any idea how to solve this?

NOTE: There is still no solution / fix for this issue

    I am fed up with this issue. Microsoft is not able to solve this problem almost 2 years for me. This is very annoying. Probably a reason why other platforms doesn't like outlook.

    Everytime I get annoyed, I believed by this time MS would have fixed this issue. Get into forums looking for solution. But MS community forum or support don't give us a solution.

    Annoyance stays for few more years.

    I see this exact problem (and have for years). It's very irratating. Finally decided to see if there was a solution. I guess there is not. In the course of a day I may open 8 to 10 invites to access each meeting. I may not shut down my computer for days, but it does get locked when I'm away from the keyboard. When I eventually decide to close Outlook I may have 20 or 30 of these things to close. It's annoying and very reproducible. I can't believe MS hasn't fixed this.

    My colleagues and I have also been annoyed on a daily basis by this same issue of asking to confirm any changes when trying to close a calendar invite that was simply read and not edited. So there is still no solution to correct it?

    Thanks

    correct there is no solution....
