GZoli The setting is in Outlook 365 itself. In Outlook:
- Click File
- Open Account Settings
- Select your Microsoft account
- Click Change
- Click More Settings
- Select the Advanced tab
- Microsoft 365 Features will be toward the bottom of the Settings box

- AbacusHKSep 12, 2021Copper ContributorI followed these steps but it did not cure the read-only status of my calendar. I am quite perplexed as to the purpose of the read-only status. I created the calendar and to my knowledge, it is not shared with anyone else. Now I am unable to update and revise several recurring birthday events. Why would MS lock me out of my calendar and then not explain why or provide a pathway for unlocking the calendar, say through a password verfication. I don't believe these modifications should be deployed until they are fully tested and vetted.

Troy_LambertI know you updated this a while ago now, but thanks for taking the time. I was completely unaware of this 'Calendar Improvement preview' and it seems to have resolved my issue too.
