External (guest) users can no longer be added to a Team and previous external users removed!
Please help me, I'm tearing my hair out! We have turned on and allowed guest user access for Microsoft Teams and all has been working great for well over a year now but all of a sudden on the 6th...

Hi all,
Everyone in my team is completely stumped! We haven't changed any settings, nothing was turned off or on and all of a sudden on Tuesday everything started working again and existing teams where people were auto removed, were automatically re-added! It's a strange one!
I have a feeling it could be the PowerShell thing I did first and I was just impatient but I honestly couldn't tell you.
Thanks all.

Someone had to have changed a setting in the guest access checklist somewhere to cause guests to be removed.

Step 3 is usually the culprit that someone will change not knowing it affects Teams and removing those settings will remove your guests too from the groups.
If any of these settings aren't right and you change them, you will have to give them up to 24 hours to then allow your client to invite external users.
