Creating and Sharing Calendars

In Windows Calendar, you can create individual calendars for multiple people who use the program and share them with each other (New!). When you have multiple calendars, you can view them individually or all at once, side-by-side, or overlaid to make it easier to compare one calendar with another and check for free time. Appointments for each calendar are displays in a different color to make them easier to tell whose schedule each item belongs to. If you want to add an appointment from another calendar to your calendar, you can drag appointments between the two calendars.
