How to alter future meetings without changing the past events in a series of repeated meetings?

Example:

  1. I have a meeting set up to repeat every Monday at 9 AM from 1st January 2023.
  2. Assume today is the 1st of November, and I want to move all the recurring meetings to Tuesday.
  3. Outlook allows me to change the current event or all the events in the series.
  4. Single-event change is OK.
  5. But if I have to change all future events, I have to select "Edit" >> "All events in the Series."
  6. This option not only changes future but all the past events as well.

How can I ensure that only future events are updated (to Tuesday 9 AM) and I still have the entries of all past events in the calendar (as Monday 9 AM).

Thank you in advance.

Update: I'd like you to know that this is now fixed.

If you open a recurring event and then click the edit button at the bottom left corner of the event window, it allows you to edit "This and all following events" ****

Thank you, Microsoft Team.

    I'm doing this on my work email. I cannot login to office365 with my work email. We are apparently switching over to office365 soon, but not for a few months. I can access email on desktop version of Outlook and via an exchange website.

    This screenshot is taken from MacBook.

    Microsoft has listened and added the option to alter the "future occurrences" only.
