Cannot delete a past calendar event.
 

Cannot delete a past calendar reminder which I have deleted. A reminder pops
up each time I access Outlook, and multiplies monthly.

Did you try starting Outlook once with the /cleanreminders command line
switch?

I have done what you said, but keep getting a message that Windows cannot
find outlook.exe/cleanreminders. Cannot find in search either.

Notice that I included a space before the slash and you did not. Enter it
EXACTLY as I described.

I was taken to a page that has a lot of files, but none of them are
cleanreminders.
When I click onto any of these files, I am told that they cannot be accessed.

OK, then, click StartRun and try this command:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Officexx\outlook.exe" /cleanreminders

Make sure you include the spaces and quotes. Where you see "xx", include
the value you have on your PC, since it's version-dependent and you decided
not to mention your Outlook version.

I have tried everything you said and it still is not working. It now tell me
that it refers to a location that is unavailable. The reminders keep
multiplying and appear several times a day. There are now 16 reminders that
pop up.

Then you're typing something incorrectly.
