After adjusting training plan end date workouts not synching to Fenix 6 watch

I have been following the Advanced Half Marathon Heart Rate-based training plan which I scheduled through the Garmin Connect website.

I am in week 5 of the plan, and last night I made an adjustment to the end date of the plan because my long runs were falling in the middle of the week which wasn't suitable.

Since doing so I've synced from my phone to my watch several times, but my workouts are no longer appearing in the Calendar widget and when I start the Run activity the workouts are not showing up. 

Is this a bug or is there some other way to have these workouts sync after modification of the plan?

    I found this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Garmin/comments/bfmjps/connect_calendar_workout_sync_issue/ and already tried the solution given, but it does not work.

    Here are the steps provided in the post for ease of reference:

    1. Connect your watch to the computer

    2. Remove .fit files from the Garmin\Schedule, Garmin\Workouts directory and Garmin\Workouts\Schedule directory

    3. Open Express > Select fenix 3 HR > Click Garmin Connect button to open your account in a web browser

    These next steps are going to prompt Connect to sync your calendar to your watch because we are making a "change".

    4) Move mouse cursor to black bar on left > Select Calendar
    5) Click any workout in the Training Plan and select Edit Workout
    6) On the Edit Workout page click the Pencil icon to the right of the workout name
    7) Delete the last character/letter > Click green check mark to the right
    8) Click the Pencil icon again > Add the character back > Click green check mark > Save Workout on far right

    Connect should register this as a change to the calendar and push it to the sync queue to be sent to your watch the next time you sync.  You can confirm this by clicking the Watch/Device icon in the upper right corner to see if a (1) appears in a blue circle.  This means there is a pending item ready to be sent to your watch.  Since we are already connected to the computer with Express just click the sync button in Express and it should push the files to the watch correctly.

    I think I have figured it out.

    Deleting the .fit files, making a change and synching might have worked, but the workouts I have already completed for the week does not show up, but the ones I haven't completed does.

    I found this by chance by going into the Run activity, Options, Training Calendar.

    All the workouts already completed had a green checkmark next to it.

    I'm assuming that the new ones will sync correctly in a couple of days when I get to a workout I haven't completed.

    I hope this is helpful to someone else

    Disappointed is an understatement. I almost run into bug every other month. Unfortunately I am not able to find the Garmin via my mac….
