Is there a way of tracking who muted who in microsoft teams?

Title.

  • Italicus If then are not presenters they are attendees. Attendees can speak in the meeting, they can unmute themselves but they can't mute others and they can't share their desktop. Presenters can share desktop and mute others. Presenters can't unmute others, it is only the user that is muted that can unmute themselves.

    I know that if you dont want anyone to mute you or play around the meeting setting you can just make everyone attendee. But if everyone is presenter and someone muted you, is there some way i can find out who muted me?

    We all understand there are settings in Teams meetings: "Presenter and attendee roles" But in the chat window or somewhere else there should be some kind of public way or reporting method to show who is muting who and who is kicking off who, there has to be a transcribed form of accountability to prevent mischievous behavior, both in the classroom and at the office.

    Ivan_-07 Thank you, 

    There is no way to Track who you have muted however Only teachers may be a presenter and Students should be an attendee. If it is not a school meeting and it is just a teacher meeting, and you don't want to make others Attendee's, and someone mutes you, there is a high chance it is a teams glitch. 

     

    Thank you again to Ivan_-07 

  • No, that is not possible to track that. Only presenters can mute others so if you have that problem you should only have a few presenters in a meeting.

      My child's teacher had bad connection which forced her to reboot her laptop. In addition to logging into teams and upon logging in she noticed above it states "someone muted you". She had everyone logout of teams and created a new group invite series and it still showed someone has muted her. How do u fix?

        Use the Teams meeting roles here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/roles-in-a-teams-meeting-c16fa7d0-1666-4dde-8686-0a0bfe16e019
      • chris465 I would recommend just to have a few presenters in a meeting, specially if you got problems that someone mutes others.
