Outlook 2016 deleted internet calenders keep reappearing
We are almost two years down the road, and i still encounter this problem… no fix for me yet...
I found the bug after hours of painstaking error searching! When using a shared internet calendar, there is an option (marked yellow in the screenshot) to display the calendar on all computers with the default account in Outlook.
Having this marked seriously messes up Outlook. After I turned it off on my work computer, the errors when away. Scary enough, this is selected by default.
So, solution: Review all computers with Outlook and remove/disable all internet calendars. Add them back one by one and ensure you disable the "Display this calendar on other computers with the account:"
As an added security, I went into the folder C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook and deleted the internet caledar pst file too to ensure it's completely removed.

Never mind. Outlook just decided to go back to old habits. Still corrupt. &%¤#!%¤/"#/((!"½

I was having the same problem and found a solution that worked for me - I had to delete old linked devices from my Microsoft Account.
Over the years I've had three computers, all of which were linked to my MS Account. I went in and deleted all of the ones I don't have anymore, then deleted the internet calendars, and three weeks in, they have not reappeared.
Here is how to delete old devices: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026440/microsoft-store-manage-your-devices
Give it a try and let me know if this works for you.

DBonnerThis worked for me (at least, until now, fingers crossed...). Thanks!
