    Windows Calendar search not working


    The search facility within my Windows 10 Calendar app has stopped working. When I type something into the search box and click the magnifying glass it returns two messages. Immediately beneath the search box the message states <Cannot search the account "Microsoft account"> and lower down on the left the second message states <That didn't work. Please try again in a moment>.

    If I uncheck the Calendar box named "Microsoft account" then the first message disappears as I expected it would, but the second message remains.

    Because I don't search my Calendar every day I'm not certain when the fault began, but I first noticed it about two weeks ago.

    My Calendar app is up to date.

    Any suggestions, please?

    :)

  2. Event portion in calendar doesnot work.

    Hello,

    So this helped us to understand that the issue is with in the Calendar app. So let's proceed with further troubleshooting steps:

    Step 1: Run Windows Store Troubleshooter

    I suggest you to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter. Follow these steps to run Windows Store troubleshooter:

    • Type troubleshooting in the search window and select it.
    • Select View all on the top left corner.
    • Click Windows Store troubleshooter.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
    • Check if issue persists.

    Step 2:

    If issue persists then there might be a chance that the Calendar app may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store. To get these app working again, you need to follow these steps:


    • Open powershell
      as administrator. Type PowerShell in the search box, right click on it and select
      run as administrator.

    • Run the command get-appxpackage *microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps* | remove-appxpackage


    • Re-install Calendar from Windows Store.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have any queries related to Windows, we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.
