Recurring event is being deleted from Outlook
See original GitHub issueChecklist:-
OGCS Version: v2.8.7 v2.8.4
Edition: Portable
Sync Direction: O<->G
Bug Description
I have deleted two recurring events in Outlook and then recreated them. They were initially synced to Google, however on the subsequent sync, one event is deleted while the other stays intact. I recovered the deleted event from Outlook Deleted Items, by opening it and copying to My Calendar, but it is then deleted after each sync. I have also tried deleting it from google, doing a full one-way sync O->G and then resetting back to O<->G, but it continues to be deleted from Outlook. The other event for some reason is not affected. I have attached the log entries for the initial sync when the events are copied to Google, and the subsequent sync when one is deleted.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Created recurring event in Outlook
- Started sync, allowed item to be deleted from Outlook
- Restore event from Outlook deleted folder
- Repeat sync

It was only an occurence of a recurring series that OGCS was trying to delete from my Outlook calendar. I had tried deleting the occurence in Google and then doing a one-way sync O>G, but that did not restore the occurence in Google for some reason. However, deleting the entire series in G and then 1-way O>G has solved it. Thanks for your help.
@shiftclickdesign I’m going to close this ticket now as the OP’s issue is resolved. As previously posted, I also suspect your issue is down to your OST file/Outlook, rather than a bug in OGCS.
