"Due to org policy, you can't use (Gmail) with Teams on this device. Contact your admin"
- Mar 31, 2021
aotaibi001 As Adam said this could be due to a policy set by an admin, this is a direct link to the info https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/sign-in-teams#how-to-restrict-sign-in-on-desktop-devices
You can always use the web client and if necessary you don't even have to sign in to participate in a teams meeting

For the record I heard about this issue from another member yesterday as well and he was sure he hadn't set any restriction as he was the admin.
ChristianBergstrom I have this problem on my private laptop which has never been part of any network other than our own home network our NAS, PC's, smartphones and tablets
- ChristianBergstromApr 23, 2021Silver ContributorIf it is it would be here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/user-help/user-help-register-device-on-network (you'd disconnect). Why don't you use Teams on the web? If it isn't located under the account settings try reinstalling Teams.

Even if it is hooked up to some azure BS, how do I get rid of that? My daughter had to use teams for school; did that lock this all up like this?!?
- msvanmegenApr 23, 2021Copper ContributorI can assure you they don't use azure, since they work with AWS and GCC only.

ChristianBergstrom This is highly unlikely since this machine came from the store like this (out of the box) and the network at my husband's office is only populated with Linux desktops and where everyone has a strong distaste for anything Microsoft... and I'm starting to understand why this is, with nonsense like this.
