SYMPTOMS
When you logon to your computer, your Outlook Calendar reminders may not function.
Note This problem may occur most frequently if you use a roaming profile and are logged on by different servers.
CAUSE
This problem may occur if the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys in the Windows Registry that are used for Outlook first-run are not in sync. When this occurs, Outlook tries to perform first-run processing. First-run processing deletes and recreates the Reminders folder. During this process, reminders will not function.
This problem most frequently occurs when you use a roaming profile in a terminal server environment with Network Load Balancing. However, this problem is also known to occur in a non-terminal server environment.
