I had scheduled two online meetings using MS Outlook. Later, I deleted this schedule for all attendees, but it still appears in their calendars. Could you identify the cause and how to delete it permanently?

    Hi @LOTUS ,

    According to my research, deleting a meeting means you just remove the meeting from your calendar without notifying the attendees. Canceling a meeting will send attendees a cancellation email and remove the meeting from their calendars.

    It is recommended organizer that try to recover the meeting and send a cancel notification.

    Also, the participants can manually delete canceled meetings from their calendars or click the "Remove from Calendar" from the Outlook email (Canceled meeting email).
