Drop your files here box won't go away
My normal chat bar has been replaced by the file sharing bar. How do I return to a normal chat bar??

I just had the same issue, my fix (for now) has been dragging an item into the chat, pressing the X on the following prompt.
I hope this helps.
With my issue, it seems to happen when you click and drag a file to a browser.

- Same issue here.
- This bug is so annoying. Couple this with the multitude of other bugs and it's really making me want to persuade my organization to go back to using Slack.
insurance_web_dev to add further context for a hopeful fix, this occurred when opening an image that was sent to me from another team member
for me, it was fixed by shutting down MS teams from task manager tool.
That worked for me thank you for the suggestion Nadir_ah
Anthony_Jackson You can try to logout and log back in to MS Teams. This will temporarily solve your issue........
- Thanks that works
Anthony_Jackson I'm seeing the same issue. I'll try to sign out and back in but this seem equivalent to "reboot your machine 3 times". 🙂 Teams should manage its cache properly or at least have a "clear cache because we can't be bothered" option.
This really needs to be fixed urgently, I'm seeing it multiple times a day now.
Infuriating having to close the app through task manager and start over. Is this actively being worked on do we know?Yeah I am seeing it too. It only started about a month ago but it's more frequent. Clearly still a bug.
- I have this too.
Workaround:
- You can still type within the box, but it is greyed out (sometimes).
- You can open the web browser version of teams to continue the chat in the short term.
Let me know if this helps.
Thank you What works for me is closing the program with Task manager. Anthony_Jackson
- Thank you!!!! This was fast and worked perfectly! My issue is resolved.
This is still a bug. Experiencing it now
- Sounds as if a cache related issue could be a probable cause. A simply sign out / in from top right corner should fix that.
- Thanks!
it's helped me too, thank u
