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.

    Will,

    You are correct. I discovered this morning that updates in the source calendar are not synching to the shared calendar in outlook. I changed several events 2 days ago and those changes are NOT showing up in the shared google calendar in outlook. So clearly, the function is still broken. I was psyched when the events all seemed to be showing, but now that events do not update this is actually worse. Wrong data is worse than NO data.

    Now that you have deleted and resubscribed...are updates to your google calendar working again? Every time I delete and resubscribe, all of the updated events import at that time, however, any additions or changes to the google calendar are not synced at all (the google calendar is static when viewed in Outlook).

    I was able to get my Google Calendar working again. So, there were only 4 out of several hundred events from my Google calendar showing in Outlook.
    I was able to get my calendar to work by deleting and recreating the 4 singular events in my Google Calendar. After I did that I deleted and resubscribed to the shared google calendar in Outlook and it magically imported all my events again. The one thing in common with these 4 events is they were annually recurring birthday reminders and they were extremely old. They didn't cause a problem up until the last month or two but doing this process fixed it for me. Let me know if anyone else can get the shared Google calendar to show up in Outlook again with this fix.

    ***UPDATE***

    While I got the shared calendar to finally import it does NOT update new events. I deleted a few events 2 days ago and they are still showing on the shared calendar. So this feature is still broken.

    Ok, looks like I'm not the only one having this issue. Ugh. This is killing me, not being able to see multiple Calendars in Outlook. Same as everyone else: A few weeks ago, the calendars simply stopped syncing.
