Outlook Scrolling Calendars
I have an issue several of my IT specialists have attempted to solve, but no solution yet found. The issue: I manage 3 calendars in addition to my own. When "adding" a calendar for an individuals' availability, the list of calendars I've previously viewed, listed on the left side of the window, starts scrolling endlessly for at times up to 5 minutes when I have to close the calendar to stop the scrolling. In addition, after all the scrolling there's no guarantee the calendar I requested will open without several more attempts of the same ritual.
Any ideas for a solution? My profile has been rebuilt a number of times, that doesn't fix the issue.
Thank you for possible solutions.

1. Clear Outlook Cache
Corrupted cache files may lead to unexpected behavior in Outlook. Clearing the cache could potentially rectify the problem.Steps:
1. Exit Outlook.
2. Press the Windows Key + R to access the Run dialog box.
3. Enter %localappdata%\Microsoft\Outlook and hit Enter.
4. Find and remove the following files or folders:
- RoamCache
- Temp (if it exists)
5. Relaunch Outlook and verify whether the issue continues.Verify Calendar Permissions
Confirm that you possess the necessary permissions to access the shared calendars, as incorrect permissions may lead to loading difficulties.Steps:
Launch Outlook and navigate to the Calendar view.Right-click on the shared calendar and choose Properties.
Access the Permissions tab and verify that you have the suitable access level (e.g., Reviewer or Editor).
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately it didn't correct the issue. The calendars I access are other employee calendars which we open to determine availability. No permissions are needed to view. The 3 other calendars I manage I have permissions for.
