recurring scheduleing

Dear @Jeffreys, Leeanne T,

I hope you’re having a good day.

As mentioned in the AI guidance above, you can definitely set a recurring event in Classic Outlook for Windows, but the key thing to know is that there isn’t always a large, obvious icon on the main ribbon. In Classic Outlook, the recurrence option is accessed after you open the event itself, and in some views it appears alongside the date and time settings rather than as a standalone button on the ribbon.

Here’s how to do it step by step:

First, open Calendar in Classic Outlook and double‑click the date and time where you want the event to start (or choose New Appointment/New Meeting if Dalen Jeffreys needs to be invited).

Once the appointment or meeting window opens, look at the Start time / End time section. In many Classic Outlook layouts, you’ll see Make Recurring (often with a small recurring icon) located near the date and time fields, rather than on the main ribbon. Select Make Recurring (or Recurrence…, depending on your Outlook version).

This will open the Appointment Recurrence window. From there, choose how often the event should repeat (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.), set the pattern you want, and define the start and end of the series. When you’re done, click OK to return to the meeting window.

Finally, add any required details (subject, location, attendees such as Dalen Jeffreys), then click Save & Close or Send if it’s a meeting.

I hope this information helps point you in the right direction. If anything looks different on your screen, feel free to let me know what you’re seeing and we can adjust the steps slightly.

Looking forward to hearing back from you with any updates or additional details. 

Warm regards,

In classic Outlook for Windows, the control for making an event recurring is the Recurrence button on the Ribbon when creating or editing a meeting/appointment.

Steps in classic Outlook for Windows:

1. Open the Calendar and create a new Appointment or Meeting.
2. On the Meeting (or Appointment) tab in the Ribbon, look for the Recurrence button.
3. Select Recurrence to open the recurrence options (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly), then choose the pattern and select OK.
4. Save or send the meeting.

The icon is labeled Recurrence on the Meeting tab; using it changes the item into a recurring Meeting Series.
