Windows Calendar not showing reminder when not running?

There is an option that says "Reminders should show when Windows Calendar is
not running". I have never been able to get any of my reminders to show up
when it was not running. Is there a trick? As soon as I start it up I then
get the pop up reminder.

Thanks for your help

I have the same problem. At times at the appointed time, there is a prompt
saying the program has stopped working.
There are a lot of posts on this issue. I wonder why there are no responses
from someone knowledgeable in microsoft.

Can I join you two in also having the same problem. Reminders box is ticked
but no reminders turn up. One previous thread suggested putting shortcut to
Windows Calandar in the Startup menu - All that happens then is Windows
Calandar starts!! clever but not the answer we are looking for. How do we
get this 'higher up'????
