Can anyone mute the organizer in Microsoft teams ?

Hi,

 

I do +30 minutes to 1.5 Hrs sessions in Microsoft Teams but sometimes I think someone may interrupted the session, and I think I faced these issues:

1. I get thrown out the session where everyone else is still in the meeting !

2. Get muted

 

I have couple questions about this:

1. Could anyone be a source of these problems ?

2. If someone called me through Microsoft Teams, would that cause me any problems in the session ?

      VasilMichev Hi,

       

      I still get muted in sessions.

       

      I asked one of the members to mute me and I was muted. So what is the solution ?

        Hi aalzhrani 

        You can use the new feature for the meeting options called Don't allow attendees to unmute (also called hard mute).

        https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/manage-attendee-audio-permissions-in-teams-meetings-f9db15e1-f46f-46da-95c6-34f9f39e671a#bkmk_preventunmuting you can find the official Microsoft support documentation to the feature.

        This is also a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgAfbkASjWM.


        The others shouldn't be able to mute you again.

        Hope this helps and regards.

      Yes, I think I ran by the class settings and I think also I choose the settings that prevent members from doing anything other than posting in the chat and also I think I disabled the chat too !
