Mac Teams Client - Main Teams window stops displaying after a few days
You don't have to wait a few days. Just launch Teams then close the window from the Window menu.
Now the only way to get a window back is to quit teams.
I don't know if Microsoft monitors this forum but if they do the the steps to reproduce the defect are as I just described.
I too am shocked that their QA has not caught and logged this very clear bug.
Not being able to create a new main window from the Window menu is a separate issue. We're talking about the main window disappearing on its own... not a consequence of having accidentally (or intentionally) closing it.
The main window occasionally just disappears. That should never happen, regardless of whether or not there's a way to easily instantiate a new main window.
I have the same issue (and have had it for years with previous versions on different computers). Is there no fix for this? This alone is a reason to prefer slack (or pretty much any other messaging app)!.
Just for the records. Actually this issue disappeared a while ago.
Currently running:
Mac OS X 11.6.1
Teams: Version 1.4.00.29478
This issue still exists in the versions mentioned. I tried a month or so ago to switch to Mac OS X native notifications, hoping that it would remove the need for this buggy Teams Notification process.... however it does not. Same behavior, just with different notification delivery mechanism.
