Scheduling and managing events using Outlook.com calendar
I just spoke to Microsoft (via chat) and was informed of the following:
"....this is a general emerging issue affecting multiple Microsoft users across the Globe."
"....We have already highlighted this issue with our Microsoft engineers' team, and they are working to provide a solution to this issue as soon as possible."
"....be rest assured that this is a top priority and will be resolved as soon as possible."
So, there you have it, they know about it and maybe one day will have a fix for it.
I did leave feedback that states the following:
If this was a known issue that has had a global impact (as stated) and has been ongoing for more than 6 months, you would think that a highly-trafficked forum that Microsoft directs it's users to, (I supplied a link to this conversation in this forum) Would have at least a message that states "We are aware of this issue and are working towards a solution".
That would be Future Friendly.
