Windows 10: We should be able to set default reminders In Windows 10 Calendar App

Whenever I set a calendar event, the default reminder time is set to 15 minutes. The only way to change this reminder time is to set it in the event itself. We should be able to change this as a default setting. This is SO basic it shouldn't even be considered a "feature". This is should be fundamental to a calendar app.

Cannot set "Calendar" as default app

As everyone here is trying to tell you, you CANNOT do that.

It is "broken" and needs a fix from Microsoft.
