  2. windows calendar is not synching

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the Calendar is not synching in Windows. We will help you.

    • Is the Calendar not synching in Windows Phone or PC?
    If the Calendar is not synching in PC I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps you.

    Let's try the below steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Step 1: I suggest you to run the
    Troubleshooter for Windows App and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Refer:
    Windows 10 Apps troubleshooter


    Step 2: If the issue persists, then I suggest you to
    remove and reconfigure the account back in the Mail app.


    Reconfiguring the account should force it to sync again and resolve the issue.

    For reference: Refer:

    Calendar app


    Keep us posted if the issue resolves. We are glad to help you.

  3. Stop synching files

    OneDrive is synching files that I do not want synched. I cannot stop the process. When I choose to eliminate a folder (e.g., "Desktop") from synching, I get an an error message says that the synching can't be stopped because the files are not done synching.
    The only thing that stops the synching is OneDrive filling up and it says I have no space. I delete the unwanted files from OneDrive, making space. Then when I start the computer it starts synching the files again. What do I have to do to stop this unwanted
    synching?
