Change profile picture
When i try to change my profile picture on teams it says 'unable to change because of policy'. I don't understand why I cannot change the picture, and I would really like to remove it.
- It’s probably set by the OWA policy in Exchange! Talk to the administrator

“Teams honors the Outlook on the web mailbox policy setting that's configured by tenant admins to control whether users can change their profile picture. If the -SetPhotoEnabled setting is turned off in the policy, users can't add, change, or remove their profile picture. For example, if a user uploads a profile picture that's approved by your organization's IT or HR department, no action is needed. However, if a user uploads a picture that's inappropriate, change the picture according to your organization's internal policies”

Adamadam deltinger I tried, but I couldn’t find any way to contact my IT admin.. I’m not used to this, and I’m pretty young so I don’t know much about this. How can I contact my IT admin? I clicked on the link and haven’t find anything that can help me get to them.
I really want to change my profile picture, but it just won’t let me.. all my classmates can but for some reason it won’t let me change it myself. I need help please 😞Also, i never uploaded any inappropriate content. so I’m not sure what the problem is.
