Restore Outlook Reminder Popups

If you’ve been reprimanded for accidentally missing a mandatory staff meeting (oops) because Outlook didn’t remind you to go, you’ll be pleased to know that you can safely place the blame on someone from IT; it’s a known issue with Outlook.

Just make sure that after you’re through yelling at them (because I know how much you really wanted to attend that meeting) that you kindly direct them over here to fix your problems.

Exit Outlook and run:

outlook /cleanreminders

If that doesn’t work, do this:

outlook /resetfolders

It’s my understanding that Microsoft would rather write KB articles instead of better code.
