Update.exe - Configuration parsing error for Microsoft teams. Please guide.
  • Hi cmm1779 ,

    If you haven't restart the machine after the changes, please try after restarting the computer. If that won't help, please follow the steps also

    1. Rename the machine.config file in the Config directory something like machine.config.backup
    2. Rename machine.config.default file to machine.config.default.backup in the same folder

    3. Copy machine.config.default.backup and rename to machine.config
    4. Restart the machine.

    Hope, this will help you

    Hi cmm1779 ,

    It looks like a file permission issue for a file inside .net framework installation. You may try the following steps

    1. Open the folder C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Config

    2. Right click web.config file and select Properties

    3. Switch security tab

    4. Select the user in which you are trying the update and provide Full Control Permission

    5. Apply the settings and try again
