Outlook asks to save when closing appointments without any change

see below some more visuals to reproduce:

i think you misunderstood indeed, you create a new appointment, and start opening other calendars, thats not the case in my example, let me rephrase again:

1. Open your own Outlook calendar, and open any existing appointment in your own calendar by double clicking on the appointment (screen pops up with the appointment and details, don't click anything else)
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.

Dear Fnurk,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm doing more research and testing on this issue

A behavior is observed, I kindly ask you to verify with me.

When I reproduce your problem on my computer:

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.

the result is the same

When I click on someone else's calendar, in other words, I do not have permission and cannot edit it. Then put laptop to lock mode (windows key + L), and when I log in again and close this appointment, there is no hint here. There is no pop-up asking you to save. the appointment closed directly. The only difference I noticed was the blinking cursor.

To sum up, I think, is the "cursor" effect. When there is a cursor, you are in edit mode by default, so in order to avoid the trouble caused by the fact that your edited something is not saved, Outlook will prompt you to save. But if you don't have permission to change, that is, when the cursor doesn't appear in the open calendar, it won't think you made an edit. This is similar to Read-only mode.

If I misunderstand something, please correct it.
