How do I get single window mode back?
Teams seems to have auto updated and now meetings are in separate pop out windows. I don't like this. I want everything in one window again.
This kind of behavior should only ever be optional and not forced on the user. I don't care which is the default but it should be an option.

merlinpatt Hi there, you need to enter the settings in Teams and leave this unchecked.
As for being default this is the latest info.
- New experiences are available and users can enable through settings. - Complete
- Experiences are enabled by default and users can disable through settings. - Late September (previously August)
- Experiences are enabled by default and user controls are no longer available. - October (previously September)
So going forward this will be the new default if they don't decide to keep it as an option.

- Dave_OstroskeCopper ContributorI agree with the others who preferred single-window mode and want that ability back. I could restore the Teams window, along with the active meeting, with a single key chord before. I'd like to have that single-chord window restore made available again.
- GeorgeKhubuaCopper ContributorI am really frustrated that with the latest update, no longer is there an ability to have a single-window mode. This is so stupid to force the users into the new tremendously inconvenient multi-window UX, especially when great (single window) UX was there, and was doing a good job.
Please bring the ability to switch this feature in options back. - ChristianBergstromSilver Contributor

- swiss-chrisCopper ContributorThis reply is no longer accurate. The option is now missing.
- ChristianBergstromSilver ContributorI wrote that reply above almost 7 months ago. Now it's rolling out as default as they (Microsoft) have said for a very long time.
- merlinpattCopper ContributorWhere in settings is this? I don't see this as an option anywhere.
