Default Strange Calendar Alert

I always get alert/reminder when I open Outlook. I do not
record/set any appointment. But the reminder kept alerting
me on the same date (e.g. 12.8 I have 4 birthday alert). I
never record or mark anything on that date. Eventhough I
have deleted the entry, the alert kept on coming.

What's wrong with the system. Should I need to uninstall
and reinstall or is there any setting need to be modified?

Thank you

Try starting Outlook one time with the /cleanreminders switch.

Start-run-outlook.exe /cleanreminders (note the space between .exe and /)
