Hi @Kántor Krisztina

Welcome to our forum!

What is your account? Outlook.com or Gmail.com or something else?

Does the issue occur recently on Outlook Desktop Client? Do you have any specific operation before the issue occurred?

In addiiton, here are some steps you may want to take:

Check Account Type: Ensure your account is a Microsoft domain account (e.g., @outlook.com, @hotmail.com). If not, add one to Outlook and set it as the primary account.
Update Outlook: Make sure you're using the latest version of Outlook. Sometimes updates fix missing features.
Uninstall and Reinstall: Sometimes, it will also solve some unexpected problems.

Calendar > add calendar > add directory > missing

Based on my research, Add From Directory is a feature that Microsoft 365 accounts with licenses have, you may add a M365 account with license to see if there are any differences. (The picture above is without a license, and the picture below is licensed). User's image Hope it helps!

Good afternoon,

I have tried this on 3 different pc (win10, win 11) on updated outlook(new) desktop apps, with gmail, hotmail, and work email as well.

I have tried to delete the app and reinstall, hotmail was also set to primary. In all cases, the share calendar option is still missing. It looks like the feature has been removed overall

Hi @Kántor Krisztina

Thanks for your response.> the share calendar option is still missing.

Do you mean the option boxed in the picture below missing? If so, you may want to refer to the thread and try again.

If the issue persists, here are a few workarounds you may take:

Use Outlook Web App (OWA): Sometimes, features like calendar sharing work better in the web version. Log in to Outlook Web App and try sharing your calendar from there.

Switch to Classic Outlook: If the new Outlook is missing features you need, you can switch back to the classic version. This option is usually available in the settings or through a toggle switch in the app.

Hope it helps.
