first day of week in calendar of Microsoft Teams
I have set Saturday as the first day of the week and Microsoft Outlook shows the week days in the correct order. But calendar of Microsoft Teams shows Saturday as the last day of the week. How can I fix this problem?
I am the admin of my organization tenant but I did not see any settings for this matter in Teams Admin.
- This is depending on the app language you set in the client! For example if you have English (UK) you will have mon-sun and if you set the app language to English (US) it will change to sun-mon
There’s currently no other way of doing this.

login to the web access via outlook.office.com.
got to settings -> View all outlook settings (bottom of screen) -> select Calendar on left pane ->
Show 1st day of week as:
Show Work week as:
->Save
Restart Outlook & Teams the new settings will take effect. This worked for me.
- This also worked for me. Thanks
Since yesterday Teams show me start of the week from Sunday. I change the language to English (UK) and Polish and it didn't help, in office program and web version it starts from Monday.
Is there anything that can be done?
And why Microsoft you won't add the calendar options to Teams?
The first day of the week setting only applies to the Outlook calendar. This settings is not automatically transferred to the Teams web client which sadly seems to be using the current browser languange setting, and I don't know of any way to override that unless you change the browser language.
I which that Microsoft would implement a Microsoft AD account languange setting that could be used in all their apps and transferred via token so that the wheel does not have to be invented over and over again 🙂

AdamThis whole set up is maddening. I have outlook calendar set up as Sunday as the first day of my work week, but Teams shows Monday-Friday as my work week. I live in Oman and our work week is Sun-Thurs., which Outlook can accomodate, but Teams is seemingly just not possible.
How should it be this hard to make simple adjustments to my calendar to reflect the way I need it to work?
- I set the language in Teams to UK but it still shows as Sunday start. I then went to Outlook, Monday is my start week. Quit all apps and restarted, still Sunday start in MSTeams. Help?
