  1. The 'Categorize' option in my Microsoft Calendar app disappeared


    Hi, I've been using the Microsoft Calendar app for quite a while now, and I really liked the categorize option that allowed me to color code specific events on my calendar just by right clicking them. Today, I noticed that of my two accounts registered on my email app, one wasn't syncing properly. I decided to remove the account and I logged it on again. That worked and my emails started syncing.


    My calendar events, however, all disappeared, so I decided to re-enter events. Unfortunately, the categorize option has disappeared and now I can only change the 'show as' options, but that doesn't really help for my purpose because I can't distinguish between events with one look.


    I would appreciate if someone could help me restore the categorize option.

    :)

    Hello,

    I have the "Categorize" option in the Calendar app for W10. It worked OK but suddenly my categories are missing. I don't seem to find the help for this feature. Someone can help?

    Thanks
