Adding calendar events in Windows 10 has been, for the most part, fairly easy. It was done by launching the Calendar app itself either through the standard method of launching an app or by clicking on the plus icon in the notification's popup from the calendar in the Taskbar. With the release of the Windows 10 November 2019 version 1909, however, Windows provides a new, faster way to add calendar events, without needing to launch the Calendar app itself.
Windows has made this quick and easy to use. Follow these steps to start adding calendar events:
