Hi,I have a team with the name "My Company Team" and a few public channels and one private channel with the name "Secret Place". If I'm the owner of this private channel "Secret Place" when I click on "manage channel" I can see all members BUT when I'm a member of this private channel "Secret Place" I cannot see all members by clicking "manage channel", I see only the owner and blurred/greyed "Members and quests (0)" Can this option be changed somehow, so members can see members of private channels?

I`m seeing this behaviour on Teams for Windows and Teams for macOS but not for Teams for iOS.I log-out and log-in and I'm seeing members in private channels. Can be a cache issue after auto-update of Teams?

Members and guests are zero(0) for private channel

imarinov I have the same issue. One channel is private and has members but shows (0). As I cannot remember who I added, I try to add someone and get a message stating 'One member already exists in this channel' but I didn't know as I cannot see the list of members. I am Owner of the team site.

  Try with "my solution", sign-out -> sign-in... for clearing the cache.

    Thank you - I had one user try signing out and back in, which worked. For myself, I logged into O365 for Teams, and then out, and my desktop app refreshed, showing accurately.

That's not expected. If you are a member of a Private Channel you should see other members and owners
