Introducing Steps in Microsoft To-Do

With Microsoft To-Do we wanted a fresh start to explore the positives of productivity. We were especially inspired by the sense of accomplishment that comes from completing your most important to-dos...

Hi Katurah,

I've been struggling with a nasty 'bug' for the past few days. It seems that my 'Repeat' reminders have gone wacky. I get many copies in 'Today'. I delete them, and soon thereafter, they all re-appear.

I would be helpful to have a 'master list' of Repeating tasks so that I would find the origin and change/delete the repeat option. (I think that is on the To-do list.)

I finally just deleted every copy in the master Tasks list, and it seems to have stopped.

Hi Arnie, I'm really sorry to hear about that bug. Would you mind letting me know which device you were using and if you set those tasks to repeat directly within Microsoft To-Do or in Outlook Tasks? Thanks!

NOT Outlook tasks, but ToDo tasks.

Using both Windows desktop and Windows 10 phone.

Interestingly, I was able to stop the excessive repeats on the desktop yesterday by deleting every repeating entry in the Task list, but they still showed up on my phone for several hours. -not in Todo, but in Win10 Notifications.

It appears that now they have been killed off.

  Clarification. To delete the tasks, I did a search for them and then deleted all that showed up.
  
  Previously, I attempted to turn off the Repeat settings, but obviously could not find the 'root' entry.
