Windows 10: How do I open calendar items?

Greetings,

I already tried asking this in Microsoft Answers.

My previous Edge was set up properly so that when I clicked on an .ics file it opened Outlook. However, with the new Edge, clicking an .ics brings up the Save As dialog box. How do I fix this?

When I go into Windows 10 Settings > Apps > Default apps > Choose default apps by file type, it shows the iCalendar file correctly associated with Outlook. The new Edge seems to have its own separate settings.

Thanks,
Shane.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

 

hotmail/outlook calendar items not syncing properly -- bay-404-m.hotmail.com

Issue was only solved for us by creating an entirely new calendar on that Hotmail addressing and discontinuing use of the other. It seems that the Microsoft calendar on its servers can become so corrupted as not to properly send synchronization to all the
various cloud-connected devices.

Luckly, it's relatively easy to do this without losing any calendar items.

• Make a new calendar on the account
• Using Outlook, go to the original calendar.
  • I strongly suggest getting rid of past items in order to minimize sludge
• change calendar view to lists or categories, so you get a nice, scrollable list of items
• use shift key + mouse to select everything, or ctrl+ shift to select some of what you want
• drag it to the new calendar

Once you've confirmed that the new calendar contains all of the appointments you want, you can use outlook.com to delete the old one and never have to deal with it again.

Hey Shawn,
I did that to no avail, then I ran WSReset.exe; now I'm good on all 3, Mail, Calendar and People! *Confused
Go figure!
