I am using version 8.2.1721 (3b3cd99) on desktop that is running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.
All contacts, calendar, and tasks are stored locally. They are not sync’d to any server.
Long story greatly abbreviated: I am receiving windows notifications from EM Client every 18 seconds for a past event that was deleted 115 days before the scheduled event time.
May 9th I created an event for 3:00-3:15pm, Sept 12th.
May 20th the event was canceled and I deleted the event from EM Client.
Sept 10th I started receiving notifications for the event that was deleted. I clicked DISMISS.
Five minutes later I was presented with another notification. Again I clicked DISMISS.
Five minutes later another notification popped up. I clicked on the event to open the event then delete it again thinking I forgot to delete it previously. The EM Client program immediately crashed.
I restarted EM Client and was immediately presented with ten more notifications for the same event.
I ignored them and clicked ‘Clear All Notifications’
For the next two days I ignored all the notifications.
Fast forward to today Sept 14th - After I opened EM Client I received 202 notifications.
I again clicked on one of the notifications to open the event. I was promptly greeted with a Windows Blue Screen of Death.
I rebooted the device. I am now receiving a windows notification every 18 seconds for the deleted event.
Any idea how I can stop these notifications for a deleted event from the past?
I uninstalled EMClient, deleted all data directories associated with EM Client, the rebooted device.
I reinstalled EM Client.
I did not configure any email accounts. I did not import any contacts or events.
I created five calendar events & five fake contacts. I closed EM Client and rebooted the device.
Three of five events have expired, but I am still receiving notifications for those PAST events, I cannot dismiss these events. The remaining two are still in the future. I am not able to edit, delete, or dismiss ANY event.
I tried to edit a contact, I was not able to edit. I found that I cannot edit, delete, or add more contacts.
Tried to create a new calendar event, I could not create a new event.
Paid $75 to upgrade two devices to Version 9 - still have the same problems.
No response from Support and no suggestions here so I guess I’ll be migrating back to Thunderbird.
If yes, then open the settings and go to “General → Reminders”. Try check marking the “Automatically dismiss reminders for past calendar events”. See if that fixes your issue.
I am having a similar problem today. A recurring appointment keeps popping up - sometimes for the next appointment, sometimes for a week or two or three in the future.
I tried to delete the event but it not delete- The pop up may have interfered.
I’m using Win 10 64 Bit Pro. eM is up to date,
I just downloaded a new installer, ran the repair option from Control Panel, rebooted, and it did not help. The program is unusable, since every few seconds the popup prevents anything else from working.
