Windows Calendar is a calendar application that is included in Windows Vista. It natively supports the iCalendar file format, and has the ability to publish and subscribe to web-based calendars by using HTTP and WebDAV. Calendars may also be published to network drive shares.

Windows Calendar has several calendar views, including Day, Week (5 and 7 day) and Month, and also supports Tasks. Windows Calendar supports over 100 calendars for each user. However, Windows Calendar lacks extensibility through APIs or extensions and there is no way to allow applications to use the Windows Calendar store. [1] Also, Windows Calendar has no integration or synchronization with Windows Mail, Windows Contacts, Windows Live Mail Desktop, Windows Live Messenger or Outlook. Also, Windows Mobile Device Center under Windows Vista cannot synchronize with Windows Calendar.
