Here's how to Cancel a Meeting or Restore a Cancelled Meeting in Outlook.

Here are the steps on how to update a cancelled meeting in Outlook:

1. Open Outlook and go to your calendar.
2. Find the cancelled meeting that you want to update.
3. Double-click the meeting to open it.
4. On the "Meeting" tab, click "Send Update."
5. In the "Meeting Update" dialog box, make the changes that you want to the meeting.
6. Click "Send."

The updated meeting will be sent to all of the attendees.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind when updating a cancelled meeting:

* If you are changing the date or time of the meeting, you will need to check with all of the attendees to make sure that they are available.
* If you are adding or removing attendees, you will need to send them a new meeting invitation.
* If you are changing the location of the meeting, you will need to update the meeting invitation and any other materials that you have sent to the attendees.

It is important to be clear and concise when updating a cancelled meeting. Make sure to include all of the important information, such as the new date, time, location, and any other changes.

i. There are a few reasons why a cancelled meeting might not be removed from your Outlook calendar.

* **The meeting was not actually cancelled.** If you simply deleted the meeting invitation from your calendar, it will still show up as a cancelled meeting. To cancel a meeting, you need to go to the meeting invitation and click "Cancel."
* **The meeting was cancelled by someone else.** If you are not the organizer of the meeting, and the meeting was cancelled by someone else, it will still show up as a cancelled meeting on your calendar.
* **The meeting is recurring.** If the meeting is recurring, the cancelled meeting will still show up on your calendar until the end of the series. To remove the cancelled meetings, you need to go to the meeting invitation and click "Remove Recurring."
* **Your Outlook settings are not configured to remove cancelled meetings.** By default, Outlook will not automatically remove cancelled meetings from your calendar. To change this setting, go to File - Options - Calendar - Scroll to the bottom of the Window and click Resource Scheduling button - Tick the checkbox before "Automatically accept meeting requests and remove canceled meetings". Click OK.
