When I try to set a reminder on my outlook calendar I get "The reminder for "X" will not appear because the item is in a folder that does not support reminders." The reminder has always worked in the past.

Outlook | Web | Outlook.com | Calendar

    • Classic Outlook on Windows
    • New Outlook for Windows/Mac
    • Legacy Outlook for Mac
