Step-by-Step Guide to Fixing Reminders in Outlook
Using Outlook.exe /cleanreminders Command
One effective method to resolve persistent reminders in Microsoft Outlook is using the /cleanreminders
command. This command resets and regenerates reminders within the Outlook application. Here’s how to use it:
- Close Outlook if it is open.
- Press
Win + R
to open the Run dialog box. - Type
outlook.exe /cleanreminders
and press Enter. - Outlook will open and begin the process of clearing and resetting all reminders.
This command is particularly useful when reminders become corrupt or fail to dismiss properly. It forces Outlook to reevaluate all reminders and clean up any discrepancies.
