MS Teams New Meeting Experience auto-unchecked
PDostiyar This behavior actually appears to be working as Microsoft intended. In this article, it states:
What happens to the new meeting experience if I sign out of Teams or switch to a different Teams org?
If you sign out or switch to a different Teams org (also known as a "tenant"), you'll have to turn on the new meeting experience again. Follow the instructions for turning it on in Settings and restarting Teams.Microsoft is supposed to be changing that option to be defaulted to On and you have to opt out in the near future which will then keep the box checked even after a sign out.
PDostiyarWe are seeing the same thing occur here, but it's not happening for everyone. We do not have a solution yet to get it to stay enabled.
ccjeanty We had a similar case with a few internal folks and it seems that Office apps that are running (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, etc) may interfere and prevent the setting from saving. So, if you have any of them open...close them first. Then make the change in your Teams client to enable multi-window meetings.
Worked for us.
Had same issue after Office Update. Setting not staying. Closed all Office APPs, logged out of Teams then exited Teams APP. Only then New Experience stayed.
