Many users complained that their Calendar apps are crashing after installing the latest Windows 11 update.
The Calendar app is important for users since it allows them to organize events, meetings, appointments, and other scheduled activities.
This Microsoft application also works with third-party services, such as Yahoo, Google, Outlook.com, etc. But, as of press time, the Calendar app is crashing, preventing many consumers from accessing their schedules.

PiunikaWeb reported that it all started after Microsoft released the V16005.14326.21344.0 update. Many users shared their negative experiences, saying that the Calendar app crashes from within Mail.
The issue still happens even if you open the Calendar application via the Windows Start menu. The basic troubleshooting methods are not really working for many consumers.
This means that updating Windows, uninstalling and reinstalling the Calendar app, as well as restarting the PC will not prevent the application from crashing.
Workaround You Can Try
Although the basic troubleshooting methods are not working, a workaround that can temporarily fix the problem was discovered.
If your Calendar app also keeps on crashing, you can use the Outlook application to access it. Aside from this, you can also use your email to open the Calendar app.
Microsoft also suggests users log out and reset their Calendar apps. But, the first workaround is likely the one to work.
In case the provided methods also don't work, the software giant said that the best thing affected users can do is to DM them on Twitter.
"We understand that you encountered an issue with Windows Calendar. Please send us a DM for us to provide further assistance, and maximize character usage," replied Microsoft to a user's Twitter complaint.
As of writing, Microsoft hasn't announced an official fix for the Calendar app issue; maybe because it is busy with its other products.
Recently, Microsoft expanded ChatGPT's capabilities to control drones, robot arms, and home assistant bots. We also reported about the new Microsoft Windows 12 interface.
