When you first open the Calendar app for Windows 10, you'll see the default view of an entire month. If you want to switch your view, you can use the Day, Work week, Week, Month, or Year options to cycle between the various views. To do so, simply click on the view you want from the top right area on the page, and the calendar automatically switches to that view.
Understanding views
-
Day view: The day view shows a single day by default. If you click the down arrow next to Day, you can choose to view 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 days at once.
-
Work week: The work week view shows you the days you've defined as work days.
-
Week: The week view shows you seven days, starting on the day you've chosen in settings as your first day of the week.
-
Month: The month view shows you a calendar month by default. If you scroll down, you can view five weeks at a time.
-
Year: The year view shows you an entire calendar year at a glance. You can't view appointments or events in Year view.
