How do I migrate my calendar events to the new Outlook from Windows 10 calendar?

I tried all of the suggestions on this thread with no luck because I either didn't have the options that others had to perform the suggestions or they just weren't working. I didn't have an export option in the settings and sharing either. What finally worked for me is:

1. Login to your Outlook on Outlook Live: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/outlook/log-in
2. Click the settings cog on the top right and click on "Calendar" then click on "Shared Calendars".
3. Scroll down to the very bottom and click on the ICS link. A box will pop up with copy link and download options. Click on "Download" and save the ICS file to your desktop.
4. After the ICS file is downloaded, create a new email in Outlook to yourself and attach the ICS file to that email.
5. Open the new Outlook app on Windows and when you receive the email, click on the dropdown menu on the ICS attachment and select "Add to Calendar". Your events will now be added to the new calendar.

I know it sounds like an annoying workaround, but it's simple and it works so that's all that matters. Good luck!

Microsoft answers to no one but Microsoft. Such are the ways of oligarchic monopolies.

Hi Steven, Thanks for contacting us, I understand that you want to migrate your calendar events from Windows 10 Calendar to the new Outlook for Windows. There is no direct way to do that. You have to export your calendar from Windows 10 Calendar and import it to Outlook. To export your calendar from Windows 10 Calendar, you can follow these steps: - Open the Calendar app and click on the gear icon at the bottom left corner. - Click on Manage Accounts and select the account that you want to export. - Click on Settings and sharing and then click on Export calendar. - Save the zip file to your computer and extract it. You should see an .ics file inside. To import your calendar to Outlook, you can follow these steps: - Open Outlook and click on File > Open & Export > Import/Export. - Select Import an iCalendar (.ics) or vCalendar file (.vcs) and click Next. - Browse to the .ics file that you extracted and click OK. - Select Open as New or Import depending on how you want to add the calendar. I hope this helps! Regards, Sola

There is no "Export" option in the settings and sharing.

I too am disgusted with the blatant disregard for the end-user and have finally switched to a Mac. If i am going to have to manually re-enter months and years of calendar entries, I might as well put them into a software product of a company that gives a damn about its customers. Adios Outlook and Microsoft.

I wonder why they make an update and screw up parts of the application (not just this, but everything they've made since the beginning), without care. They made a great product, and the updates/versions totally corrupt them to the point I don't want to use them any longer. We bought a typewriter.
