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 ?

Depends on the "permissions" your attendees have, but potentially yes. Read about limiting certain features here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/roles-in-a-teams-meeting-c16fa7d0-1666-4dde-8686-0a0bfe16e019

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.
