Outlook Calendar not showing changes to linked Google Calendar

I have 2 shared Google calendar that I have added to my Outlook calendar using the Google "secret address in ical format". When new things get added, I can see them in Outlook, but if an event is changed (description for instance or time), the changes don't sync to the Outlook calendar. The same thing happens with deleted events; they aren't removed from my Outlook calendar. Some of the changes were made more than a month ago and still have not synced, but new entries have synced. I have tried deleting and re-connecting the calendar. I've attached an example of the changes not shown for one of the calendars.

I just got a new computer with Windows 11. I was having this same problem on the previous computer using Windows 10.

    I was able to sync correctly my Internet Calendar disabling Cache under primary account.

    Go to Account Settings->Email tab

    Double click on Mail address, and disable Offline Settings, unflag option "Use Cached Exchange Mode to download email to an Outlook data file"

    After Outlook client restart you'll be able to Add New Internet Calendars under Account Settings.

    When you finish subscription configuration using Refresh button your new Calendar will be updated immediately.

    I too am having this issue. Using the new Outlook on Windows 10.

    I synced my Google calendar to Outlook by adding an internet calendar and using the secret address in iCal format. I am able to see all of the currently existing events that were already created in my Google calendar on Outlook.

    However, I do not see any changes I make to existing events or new events I create.

    I've already tried the delete/re-add method in Outlook. That is not an acceptable solution, and it also didn't even work.

    Thats good to know. I’d resisted the new UI because it seemed user unfriendly but maybe ill have to give it another go.

    I finally gave up and started using the "new" Outlook desktop app. The app UI is not as customizable as the "classic" but after I made my gmail account the "primary" account, all updates back and forth between my Google calendar and the new Outlook client worked without any problems.
