Calender reminders will not clear

I have reminders from the begining of November that keep showing up. I select them and press "dissmiss", but they reappear the next day.

    It just clears and regenerates reminders. It should not cause any issues. You can refer to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/command-line-switches-for-microsoft-office-products-079164cd-4ef5-4178-b235-441737deb3a6#Category=Outlook for more information.

    It should fix the issue, however, if the issue persists, try solution 3 given at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/troubleshoot/calendars/cannot-dismiss-outlook-calendar-reminders.

    If solution 3 doesn't help, you can go for solution 2 if you are comfortable with it.

    Have a go at excusing the updates from webmail at https://outlook.office.com/mail/inbox
    On the off chance that it doesn't work, close Outlook, go to Run, reorder outlook.exe/cleanreminders, and run it.
    Standpoint will open, check whether the https://www.ertech.co.uk/ continues.
    On the off chance that it does, do you have Outlook running on various machines?

    Try dismissing the reminders from webmail at https://outlook.office.com/mail/inbox
    If it doesn't work, close Outlook, go to Run, copy and paste outlook.exe /cleanreminders, and run it.
    Outlook will open, see if the issue persists.
    If it does, do you have Outlook running on multiple machines?

      unable to clear from webmail.

      if I run the clean reminders will it erase future reminders and/or recurring reminders?
