Same here. Just started happening yesterday after I upgraded to Version 1705 Build 8201.2025 (Office Insider Slow). Happening with one other work colleague. I think we are the only ones to upgrade to this new version.

    I change SKYPE configuration for meeting reminders and it seems solved.

    Option is in Skype Meetings, "Don't show notifications when Outlook is running".

    It doesn't matter witch option you choose, just change it.

    Hope it helps.

      Thanks for the tip. I have done the same (unticked this, clicked ok then re-ticked it). Initially this appears to have resolved my issue!

      For a while there, that seemed to have done the trick. But now the problem is back.

      When i choose to disable "Don't show notifications when Outlook is running" under Meeting Reminders in Skype for Business (so that it will show notifications even if Outlook is running), the errors seem to show up even though Outlook is running.

       

      Re-enable it, and the errors stop showing up as long as Outlook is running.

       

      So I guess that it is somehow related to the meeting-integration with Outlook.
