The Chat Notification Badge That Won't Die
I know there's another thread on this, but literally none of those solutions worked, so I'm a starting a new thread. My chat notification won't go away. All of my chats are read. Here's everything I've done to fix this already (note- It's a corporate computer so I can't mess with the anti-virus): Signed out of the app every (desktop, web, phone) Restarted my computer Cleared the cache data from all 13 different locations Changed the setting to close the app when I shut down Closed it in the Task Manager Turned off all of my notifications Clicked on every chat I've received over the last week The only thing that seemed to maybe be the culprit was a very large company meeting and I was the last to leave. There was a lot of chat in that meeting, though I didn't participate in any of it. The reason I think this was when I went to log into to Teams from my browser, as I started to type "Microsoft Teams" I noticed in the suggested sites that there was a chat message from that meeting. So obviously I've left the meeting. I've deleted that chat. I've even left the teams channel that hosts those meetings. For what it's worth, I don't have any notifications on the phone app (android). It's just on the desktop and the web. Please, for the love of god, help. It's slowly driving me insane and I don't have the mental capacity to deal with anything else that makes me insane during quarantine. 🙂 *jk- I'm fine. It's a joke*
Cannot login to Teams on iphone
Hi All, I am using Teams with a personal Microsoft account (Microsoft 365 family plan). I am successfully signed into Teams on my Mac computer and can use if with no problems. However, I cannot sign into the app with the account on the iphone app. After entering my password or going through Authenticator, I receive a message: No Teams orgs yet Looks like you're not using Teams yet. Check that you've been invited by the org you're trying to sign in to. You can also set up Teams for your org by selecting Create new account. I have already searched extensively but couldn't find any solutions that worked. Have uninstalled and reinstalled the app multiple times. I am on am iphone 16 pro with the latest version of ios installed. Any ideas? Thanks.How are you running 1:1 meetings inside Teams without it turning into a mess?
Right now were using a shared OneNote for agendas and action items but honestly nobody updates it and half the time the meeting turns into a random chat with no structure. I tried using Planner tasks as a workaround but thats clunky because theres no real connection between the task and the meeting itself. Has anyone found a good way to keep 1:1 agendas, notes, and follow ups all in one place inside Teams? We have about 40 people so it needs to scale a bit.
Cannot delete organisation from Teams
Hi, It appears to be impossible to delete an organization from Teams Please see the picture below. I am unable to remove the organization beginning with L. I have used my personal email for many years, so I should be the one in control of it! I am the owner/ admin of the email account. However there is no way to delete the rogue /linked organization to which I no longer have access. How can I take back full control of my email/Teams account and remove this rogue organization? I've clicked on everything I can find and nowhere else mentions this organization. Clicking on the organization in Teams just takes me to a page saying "Microsoft Teams Free (Classic) is no longer available" with options to upgrade. I don't want to upgrade I want it deleted! TIATeams Migration for New Private Channels Stalls
Microsoft began an automated background process to move Teams private channels to a new infrastructure earlier this year. Tenants should check the state of the migration as reported by the Get-TenantPrivateChannelMigrationStatus cmdlet because it is possible that the migration is stalled and waiting for administrator intervention. In most cases, the problem is because of ownerless channels, but archived teams with private channels also stop the migration. https://office365itpros.com/2026/05/11/private-channel-migration-stalls/

Add a meeting link to the Teams Calendar
How can I add a meeting to my Teams Calendar? I have received a meeting on email with a team meetup link, but I want to add it to my Teams Calendar. The meeting comes from an external so it was not created in the Teams rooms I am part of. I am using Microsoft Teams on Linux. Have tried Teams in Browser, and the standalone desktop application of Teams.
Planner task comments no longer send email notifications – critical regression
This change removed a previously existing core functionality without providing an adequate replacement. With the new Planner experience, task comments no longer trigger automatic email notifications to assigned users. This breaks a critical communication mechanism that many teams relied on for reliable task coordination. As a result, assigned users are no longer consistently informed about updates, introducing a high risk of missed information and operational issues in day-to-day work. There is currently no supported or enforceable alternative to ensure users are notified. Previous behavior: Task comments triggered automatic email notifications Assigned users were reliably informed Communication was traceable and consistent Current behavior: No automatic email notifications No configuration to restore this @mentions required (manual, error-prone, not enforceable) Microsoft Support has confirmed that this is by design and cannot be reverted. From an enterprise perspective, this is not just a design change, but a regression of critical functionality without an equivalent replacement. Request: Please restore automatic email notifications for task discussions or provide a reliable, enforceable alternative for notifying assigned users. Question to the community: How are you handling this change in real-world scenarios? Switching tools? Enforcing @mentions? Moving communication out of Planner? Would appreciate hearing how others are dealing with this.Update to disabling Teams meeting recording expiration notification emails
Hello, Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts and feedback regarding the planned Upcoming change: disabling Teams meeting recording expiration notification emails. After carefully reviewing the feedback from this discussion, survey responses, and support channels, we have decided to pause the rollout of this change. The updates originally planned for June 1st will not take effect on that date. What this means for you: - Email notifications for expired Teams meeting recordings will continue as they do today. - No action is required on your part. - Recording expiration and deletion policies remain unchanged. Your input along with ongoing, internal engineering discussions helped shaped this decision. We want to make sure that any changes we make to the notification experience truly work for your organizations, and the feedback we received made it clear that we need more time to get this right. We're still committed to improving the notification experience for Teams meeting recordings and will provide updates here and through the Message Center when we have more to share. In the meantime, please continue to share your thoughts in this discussion. Thank you for your patience and for being part of our community.
Feature Request: Custom Status Labels for Calendar Events (e.g., 'In a Training')
Hey Teams Community! 👋 I have a small but impactful feature idea and would love your votes and feedback. --- 🔴 The Problem Right now, every calendar block in Microsoft Teams shows the same status to colleagues: "In a Meeting." Whether you're in a 10-minute standup or a 3-hour mandatory training — it all looks identical. This creates ambiguity, leads to unnecessary interruptions, and doesn't reflect how modern workplaces actually function. --- 💡 The Feature Request Allow users to assign a custom status label to a calendar event when creating it — visible to colleagues who check availability — without exposing private event details. Something as simple as a dropdown when creating an event: ✅ In a Meeting (default) 🎓 In a Training 🎯 Focus Time 📋 In a Workshop The chosen label would appear: → In the chat status indicator → On the calendar availability hover card → When someone tries to @mention or call you --- ✅ Why This Matters - Reduces interruptions during high-focus or learning sessions - Helps colleagues make smarter decisions about whether to wait or escalate - Especially valuable for schools, hospitals, training teams, and L&D departments - Lightweight to implement — no privacy concerns since it doesn't reveal event titles --- 🗳️ If you've ever been interrupted during a training because someone thought you were just "in a meeting" — please upvote and share your experience below! Let's get this on the Teams roadmap. 🚀 Tags: Feature Request, Calendar, Status, Availability, Training, Teams, Microsoft TeamsMicrosoft Teams Consecutive Interpretation Explained (NEW Copilot Feature for Multilingual Meetings)
🚀 New in Microsoft Teams: Consecutive Interpretation (powered by Copilot) Microsoft Teams just introduced consecutive interpretation, a new way to run multilingual meetings that feels far more natural than real-time translation. 🎧 Instead of translating while someone is speaking, Teams now: Lets one person speak Translates after they finish Enables real, turn‑by‑turn conversation In my latest video, I explain: • What consecutive interpretation is How it differs from real-time (simultaneous) interpretation When to use one vs the other Why this matters for international teams 👉 Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/u-fH_00nFuU #MicrosoftTeams #Microsoft365 #Copilot #AIatWork #MultilingualMeetings #FutureOfWorkCopilot Studio in Teams sometimes wraps user input with HTML tags (e.g., <div>)
I’m using Copilot Studio deployed to Microsoft Teams, and I noticed that user messages are occasionally received with HTML tags. For example, when a user sends "get me the onboarding status", sometimes it displays in the dialog box as "<div>get me the onboarding status</div>" This does not happen consistently. I’m not sure whether this is caused by how Teams renders or sends messages (e.g., HTML vs plain text), or if it is something specific to Copilot Studio. Is this expected behavior for the Teams channel? Any clarification or recommended handling would be appreciated.
Win32_DeviceGuard and Win32_TpmProvider triggering errors and network spikes since 20H2!
Hello, since upgrading to Windows 10 Pro 20H2 from 1903. The following start up after 5 minutes. These are... Win32_TpmProvider provider started with result code 0x0. HostProcess = wmiprvse.exe; ProcessID = 3188; ProviderPath = C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Win32_TPM.dll And Win32_DeviceGuard provider started with result code 0x0. HostProcess = wmiprvse.exe; ProcessID = 3188; ProviderPath = %SystemRoot%\System32\Win32_DeviceGuard.dll Unfortunately they are triggering massive network activity even if it is for a few seconds.. This is triggering this error Id 5858 = {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}; ClientMachine = DESKTOP-XXXXX; User = NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM; ClientProcessId = 4912; Component = Unknown; Operation = Start IWbemServices::ExecQuery - ROOT\CIMV2 : SELECT ID FROM Win32_ServerFeature; ResultCode = 0x80041010; PossibleCause = Unknown After restarting computer, no more errors and this doesn't occur again until the next day, back to square one again. But this is just like UPFC.exe. I think this is some sort of telemetry that Microsoft implemented every day to happen once at least.
Custom App (Static Tab) with SharePoint URL stays blank on first load in Teams Desktop Client
Hello Teams Developer Community, We have deployed a custom Teams app (v1.25) that uses a Static Tab to display our company's SharePoint intranet portal. The contentUrl and websiteUrl point to our SharePoint site. [The Issue] When a user clicks the app for the very first time in the Teams Desktop Client (New Teams), the screen remains completely blank (white loading screen). However, if the user clicks away to another app (like Chat or Teams) and then clicks back to our custom app, the SharePoint page loads perfectly. [Observations] This issue does NOT happen on Teams Web Client (browser). It loads instantly there. Clearing the Teams Desktop cache does not solve the problem. It seems to be related to WebView2 authentication/SSO redirect loops inside the iframe. I tried adding "showLoadingIndicator": true in Developer Portal, but the schema automatically strips it out upon saving. [Question] Is there a specific parameter we need to append to the SharePoint URL, or specific domains we must add to "validDomains", to prevent this initial blank screen caused by auth delays in the Desktop Client? Any guidance on handling this WebView2 rendering delay would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Mute/unmute hotkey stopped working in main windows during presentation
In recent versions I have been able to press CTRL + SHIFT+ M when I was presenting (sharing) something from my Teams main window. Recently this stopped working and I need to go forth and back from main window to the my call window to mute myself. Could you please restore the old behavior. Thank you! Best regards TomCopilot Studio bot in Teams occasionally sends duplicate responses
I’m using a Copilot Studio bot deployed in Microsoft Teams, and I’m experiencing an intermittent issue where a single user message occasionally triggers two identical responses. This does not happen consistently, and there is no intentional duplicate logic in my bot design. I’m not sure whether this is caused by duplicate message delivery from Teams (e.g., retries or at-least-once delivery behavior), or something within Copilot Studio itself. Is this a known behavior for the Teams channel or Copilot Studio? Are there any recommended ways to detect or prevent duplicate responses at the bot level? Any insights or best practices would be appreciated.Microsoft to Retire Together Mode for Teams Meetings
In a somewhat surprising decision, Microsoft announced plans to retire the Together mode feature for Teams meetings in June 2026. Based on personal experience, it didn’t seem that many people used Together mode. It seemed like it was something that people tried a couple of times before giving up. Maybe it’s just the meetings I attend, but I haven’t seen Together mode used in years. https://office365itpros.com/2026/05/04/together-mode-retirement/Can't remove external presenter in Microsoft Teams Webinar
Hello, I am trying to remove some external presenters from my Microsoft Teams webinar, but clicking the 'X' button - which normally works - is not removing them. It is likely worth noting that these external presenters who can't be removed are in fact, for some reason, duplicates. In other words, there are three real presenters here but they are each entered twice. There were two other external presenters that I was able to remove, and they did not have duplicate entries. I'm not sure if this has something to do with it. I have tried this on both the desktop client and the web app. Please let me know how this can be solved. Many thanks,
