How To Set Out Of Office In Outlook Without Auto Reply (2025) Simple Tutorial

If you want to set an out-of-office status in Outlook without enabling the auto-reply feature, you can use a calendar event instead. This method updates your availability in the calendar so colleagues or collaborators know you're unavailable, without sending an automatic response to incoming emails. It’s a great way to indicate your absence without overwhelming others with unnecessary notifications.

To set your out-of-office status, log in to your Outlook account and navigate to the "Calendar" section. You can access this by clicking the calendar icon in the bottom-left corner of your Outlook interface. Once there, click the "New Event" or "+" button to create a new calendar entry. In the event creation window, you can specify your availability by marking the event as "Out of Office." This setting will display your status on shared calendars, making it clear that you're not available during the specified time.

Be sure to include details in the event title or description, such as the reason for your absence or when you'll be back. However, do not enable automatic replies during this setup. This ensures that your absence is reflected in calendars without sending automated responses to incoming emails.

Finally, save the event, and your out-of-office status will now be visible to others through the shared calendar, helping them understand your availability without receiving an email notification.
