How to stop "Are you still there?" modal opening
I use Teams on the web
If I navigate away from the window and come back I often have a "Are you still there?" modal window slap bang in the middle of the window. Selecting "I'm back" resets the whole window, which is highly intrusive, as I normally have one window to look at a file I'm using when working, and another to do some actually chatting with the rest of the team about that work.
Today I was in the meeting, had to drop off a message off in another window, and I couldn't interact with the meeting as this modal has decided to impose itself on me.
I don't require it, and just gets in the way, so can anybody tell me how to stop it appearing?
Thanks

- Hello,
"to look at a file I'm using when working, and another to do some actually chatting with the rest of the team about that work."
So you have 2 instances of teams open in the web, and that modal is expected.
Open the file in SharePoint instead of another Teams web session and use the only Teams web session to chat.
