I saw this feature show up in my desktop version of Teams on Friday (7/1), but when I logged in this morning, it seems to be missing. Any insight on what might be going on here?TonyRedmond

No idea. Try downloading any available updates. The issue is that functionality is controlled through a mixture of client and server bits. You might have the necessary bits on your PC, but if the server you connect to (and there are tens of thousands involved) says no, you don't see a feature. Patience is a virtue.

Thanks for the insight TonyRedmond, I did try forcing an update, and that didn't seem to work, but I'll keep my eye on this to see if it shows up again at some point! 🙂

melissarobinson Same thing happened to me. I was able to find it again by logging into Teams through my browser, the self chat was pinned (and sent self a message/talked to myself a bit). Now it is in the app on my PC as well. Hope this helps!

As a previous user of Slack, I've been waiting on this feature to come out in Teams for awhile now! Happy it's working for you now as well.
