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.

I have been trying to fix this issue for years, as well. One can find the same issue being asked and unanswered since 2014 all over the internet... It seems like only a small subset of Microsoft employees see the "Send the change to everyone" or "Send the change only to the added attendees" options when they try to add one single new person to an existing recurring meeting. It would be great if Microsoft could find a way to ensure this functionality is offered to everyone who uses Outlook - not just the 4 Microsoft employees tasked with replying to this same problem for the past 20 years?

I just tested myself - and I was not given the option to send to everyone or just to new attendees. I want "Save Only" because I need to modify the agenda as things cross my mind!

I have seen the 'save only' option in the desktop version, but even in the desktop version, it is not confidence-inspiring.
