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.

    Try right clicking on your shared calendar in the Outlook app and go to the synchronization tab. What does it say in the statistics folder?

    Really happy for y'all that syncing is working for you again, but it's not working for me yet. Hopefully it rolls out to everyone soon? I'm using classic Outlook on desktop (I hate the web app) so maybe that's why?

    I added a new event on my Google calendar, and it is already showing up on my shared google calendar in Outlook. So, it does appear this problem has been resolved far as I can tell.

    It would have been nice if Microsoft acknowledged the problem and the fix but what should we expect.

    I too can see my Google events in my Outlook Calendar again.

    I guess Microsoft quietly made a fix without admitting it was ever a problem.

    I'm not going to call it fixed yet, I want to do a test to make sure not only did it load my events, but that it KEEPS loading new / changed / deleted events.

    I created a new event in my google calendar and will see if that event shows up on the shared calendar in Outlook.

    Does anyone know how frequently the shared calendars are refreshed? I've heard twice a day.
