I have a _VERY_ Basic Question About the “Reminder” Feature
Hello Everyone!
I only Recently discovered “Microsoft To Do” {_For Windows_} & have found it to be EXCELLENT as my To-Do Program --- BUT!!! There is one KEY Feature that I have NOT been able to Figure Out . . .
I Really, Really Need the ""Reminder"" Feature—because I will have (for example) a meeting coming up at 3:00 PM, and I will be working away — Confident that my To-Do Program Surely wouldn’t let me forget about my (important) meeting . . .
Only it has not worked that way!!! INSTEAD, I ::
- 1. Click on that Meeting To-Do Item; THEN
- 2. Click on “Remind Me”; THEN
- 3. Click on “Pick a date & time”; And Finally –
- 4. In the Date/Time Drop-Down, I SELECT:: “TODAY At 2:50 PM” . . .
And Then I Return to Work, Knowing that my Trusty To-Do Program will Notify me precisely at 2:50 PM – –
BUT!!! That did NOT happen—IN FACT—Precisely NOTHING Happened:: I TOTALLY missed my Meeting!!
Since that unfortunate incident, I have tested the (Supposed) “Reminder” Feature in EVERY Conceivable way, and I have NEVER got it to produce Even ONE Single Reminder!!
. . . SOooo I’ve been using an external DUMB Sticky-Note app that reminds me PERFECTLY—To the SECOND!!
Can ANYBODY please suggest a Possible Reason that the Supposed Reminder Feature does __Absolutely NOTHING__ ?!
Thank You Very Much For Your Help! !!
