Enable Meeting Copy

I need to turn EnableMeetingCopy for Outlook meetings back on. How do I use this registry key to re-enable copying meetings to do this?

Dear reader,

 

Unfortunately I don't see the options mentioned:

 

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook

 

This is as far as I can follow your instructions. Under this branche I only get these options:

 

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Resiliency

 

And below that:

 

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Resiliency\DoNotDisableAddinList

 

So unfortunalely no maps called : "options" / "calender" etc.

 

I use the copy feature very often. Please advice on how to create this workaround in my situation (I assume I have to add the registry key at a different location)!

 

Thanks a lot!!!

Hi JorgNien,

can you please check what version of Outlook are you using?

Do you have Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0 or Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0 registry keys?

    LeonPavesic Could you please help me, I don't see the Options either. I have Outlook version 2401 and it won't work not even if I create the key manually.

    Thank you!

      Hi JorgNien,

      thanks for the additional info and the screenshot.

      The registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar may not be present by default and may require manual creation.

      If you're aiming to enable the copying of meetings between calendars in Outlook, you may need to manually create a DWORD value named EnableMeetingCopy under the Calendar key and set its value to 1.

      IF the above solution proves ineffective, consider running a system file check (sfc) or performing an in-place Office repair.

        Thanks once again. I am a nocice to registry manipulations. So...

        Could you tell me how to create this key/map/directory:
        "
        The registry key

        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar

        may not be present by default and may require manual creation.
        "

        If I can do that I know how to manually create the DWORD with the right value I think.

        Kind regards,
        Jorg
