Update calendar invite without sending 'meeting has been updated message' to attendees
- Jan 11, 2022
ssoutrs Hi, if using Outlook on the web the updates won't be sent to all attendees as it has a built-in behavior when it comes to these notifications
Send updates options for attendees not shown - Exchange | Microsoft Docs
If using the Outlook client she should save the updated info (File - Save) and not use "Send update" button. If adding/deleting someone in the invite make sure to select the proper option at the prompt.

ChristianJBergstrom When I press the save button, the only options it gives are in the screenshot below.
And it says that the update will be sent to "about 28 people." This needs to be fixed in Outlook. I used to be able to send an invite to just one person for an event without having to update every single attendee.
- WinfredKwablaJul 11, 2023Microsoftif you hit okay, you will then see another pop-up which ask if you would like to send updates to only added or deleted attendees. Hope this helps

WinfredKwabla , unfortunately, no such pop-up with those options pops-up.
Is there a version/OS/platform where this unicorn pop-up might exist? It has been offered as an answer to this issue in posts on this question for the past 20 years, but I have yet to see this pop-up.

I'm trying the "new" Outlook and so far have submitted multiple suggestions and things I don't like about it. I think about 5 today so far. One complaint I just realized related to this thread. The "new" outlook appears to be like OWA which is horrible. I can no longer edit a scheduled item on my calendar and just Save these changes. I am forced to send the updates to everyone. The edits I make on MY end are rarely meant for everyone in the invite. The "new" Outlook no longer has a quick access toolbar and I can't figure out how to save these calendar edits. Has anyone else ran into this?

I have this same issue, as I am sure do tens of thousands of MS Outlook users. I have a team of people that have to re-accept every time we need to adjust one small element of a meeting. SUPER frustrating.
You are not alone.

Hej krisknight
I found the solution - see pic:
But then the outlook download mail history and get a bit slower - trying to find a solution to that right now.
