Outlook calendar will not allow a date or time change to a scheduled event via the date/time pull downs

In my outlook calendar I can no longer change the date or time of any event using the pull down arrows to change the start date or time. When I input a new day or time, it reverts back to the original. I am able to change the date/time of event by dragging the event, but this is cumbersome. It is a new computer and Office 365. This is a new issue and started approximately 2 weeks ago.

    I started Outlook in Safe Mode, so that turns off all addins. No difference

    The workaround is to use the Scheduling Assistant to change the date when making a new calendar entry

    It still won't let me set a reminder time.

    Hi Thanks for your input. I came to the same conclusion to use the scheduling assistant - but it didn't used to be necessary!!

    It is irresponsible that this bug had not been fixed since it was introduced somewhere around Oct 2024. I cannot get the new Outlook to talk to my iCloud calendar, which I know they're pushing, which is probably why this bug has not been corrected. Does anyone know a firm way to correct this? Do I need to completely uninstall Microsoft 365 and reinstall? That's a doomsday scenario because I'll have to reconfigure everything; however, I'll do it to get back my usability in my currently useless calendar. Thanks for any help; it is more than appreciated!
