Change Default Reminder for All-Day Event

[pirgnori]

When I create an all-day event, the default reminder is 18 hours. For other type events the reminder is my defaut, 1 day.

How do I set the default reminder for an all-day event to 1 day instead of 18 hours?

Thanks.

The all day event reminder is not user configurable - you need to change it each time you create an all day event with a reminder.

I agree on Diane"s suggestion on this. Reminders for all day events will always default to 18 hours. You cannot change this default, but you can change the reminder for a specific event

For more information about how to change reminder for specific all day event you can check the “See where to change the reminder default” section in the article below:-

Thanks, Diane. Nice to get a quick and definitive answer. Let's hope Microsoft reads this board and makes the next version able to make reminders for all-day events configurable.

Don't hold your breath - it's been a popular request for years.
