Disable Meetings in a Separate Window
mfilion It gets even funnier now... I have the same version of teams installed on my laptop and my desktop pc, but both behave differently.
On my Laptop new meetings have a standalone window and on the desktop pc they do not.
There's no setting to change that and it's really frustrating...
I want a choice and I like the meeting being in a new window, it keeps the other chats more available...
EDIT: The Version is: 1.4.00.19572 (64-Bit)
Same here, new video calls and meetings open in the main Teams window, undetached. The option to detach is gone and can no longer follow a presentation on one screen while chatting with others in the main Teams window.. Changing the default to undetached is one thing, removing the option completely is another.
Teams wasnt great with simple things like allowing for more than just 15 pinned contacts, but at least that was a practical feature. Now it regressed to no detachable confcalls, and still just 15 pinned contacts.
Oh and no actual local chat history that can be sorted, browsed and searched as good as Skype with Outlook integration had..
Basically, only huge steps backwards.
