Enable Meeting Copy

I need to turn EnableMeetingCopy for Outlook meetings back on. How do I use this registry key to re-enable copying meetings to do this?

    Hi Leann66328,

    to (re)-enable the copying of meetings in Outlook, you can modify the Windows Registry.

    Here are the steps you can use:

    1. Press Win + R to open the Run dialog box.
    2. Type regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor. If prompted by User Account Control, click Yes to allow it to make changes to your device.
    3. Navigate to the following path in the Registry Editor:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar

    4. Right-click on the Calendar key, select New, and then DWORD (32-bit) Value.
    5. Name the new DWORD value EnableMeetingCopy.
    6. Double-click on EnableMeetingCopy. In the Value data field, enter 1 and click OK.
    7. Close the Registry Editor.

     

    Outlook blocks copying meetings with “Copying meetings is not supported.” - Microsoft Support

      Woaw merci infiniment LeonPavesic 🙏

      Tu es bien le premier à réussir à me résoudre ce problème ! En effet, la solution de base donnée par MICROSOFT est très générique et ne s'appliquait pas à mon ordinateur professionnel. Grâce à ta méthode, j'ai résolu mon problème et ai gagné un temps précieux ! 

      Merci encore ! J'aimerai te mettre 10 likes ! 👏👏👏👏

      Have tried this but I still cannot drag meetings from one calendar to another. I get a red circle with a diagonal bar when I try. Works fine with the old outlook on my old laptop.
