Windows 10: Windows 10 Calendar Problems

I just got a new computer with Windows 10 not too long ago and everything seems to be setup and working but I am having two problems with the Windows Calendar.


1) I have my Windows 10 Calendar synced to my Samsung Galaxy S8 phone and my iPad 9.7 2018 through my Hotmail account. When I add an event or appointment on my computer it only takes a few seconds and the event shows up on my Samsung Calendar on my phone and my iPad Calendar. If I delete an event on my computer, same thing, everything works great. The problem is when I add something to my Samsung or iPad calendars, it does not show up on the computer's calendar. I have checked everything I can think of and nothing corrects the problem. I have even turned items off and back on and it still doesn't work. Any ideas would be appreciated.


2) On my old Windows Calendar, I think it was originally for the Vista, if I missed an appointment because the computer was turned off I would get notified of a missed appointment the next time I turned on the computer. Say I was out of town for a week and then came home and started my computer, it would tell me all of the appointments and events that I missed and I could go through each of them and dismiss them. With the Windows 10 Calendar if I miss an appointment because the computer was turned off I do not get a notification of missed appointments. The only time I get notifications is when the computer is turned on. Is there anyway to get the program to tell me appointments and events that happened while the computer is turned off?


Thanks for the help and advice,


Dale

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
