Calendar makes my appointments automatically recur

[OldManP]

When I open an appointment in calendar and change it (change the day, time,
etc.), it turns into a recurring appointment when I save and close it. I'm
not clicking on the recurrence tab. When I go back in to remove the
recurrence, then some of my changes to that appointment are lost.

Anyone else seen a bug like this?

Go to Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs. Look for a program called Outlookaddinsetup and remove it. This is a new Dell computer, right?

Thanks from me, too. This was very frustrating along with a lot of out
Outlook malfunctions. A new Dell with Vista ...

Thank you, Milly. I found the fix and corrected it a couple of months ago. MS
should include the fix in their next update.

Why should Microsoft need to fix a problem in Cyberlink's software?

Maybe prevent it from being installed? ;-)

it comes preinstalled by dell. Users need to complain to dell and demand
fixes from Dell.

I just replaced a bad HD in my new Dell XPS (bought it 11/07), and had to
delete that file again -- and again it worked. Thanks!

And thanks to Brian for setting me straight. I mean, why would I think it
was MS when the program title is "Outlookaddinsetup"? Silly me.

I'm on the horn to Dell now. Thanks Diane!
