Microsoft Teams opens then closes. Just goes in that loop when attempting to open.
The issue for me, was the initialisation of The Windows Camera Frame Server being manually disabled in the registry, as this causes some users to experience their webcams turning off and on again. disabling this service seems to interrupt the Teams application from starting properly.
I have re-enabled this and Teams now remain open and usable.
I have deleted the manual D-Word Entry (EnableFrameServerMode = 0) in both:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Media Foundation\Platform
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows Media Foundation\Platform
Let me know if this fixes for you.
brendansmallco Unfortunately those registry settings do not exist in either for me. I also tried starting the service "Windows Camera Frame Server" and that made no difference.
No errors in OS Event log ...
This is all I see for a second or two and then it goes, no errors, nothing.

I have a job interview tomorrow and they use teams, unfortunately looks like I may not be able to participate.
Microsoft's technology at it's finest as usual...

Hey Rob, Sorry my fix doesn't apply to you.
Have you been able to grab the teams logs from:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Teams\logs.txt
This might help shed some light on the problem. If you need to PM me a link to the logs so I can help, let me know.
