MS Teams New Meeting Experience auto-unchecked
I have noticed a strange behavior after turning on the Microsoft Teams new meeting experience, I checked it is working normally but when you sign out from MS Teams, the new meeting experience is unchecked. If I quit Teams, it isn't and still remains checked.
Has anyone else notices this odd behavior or it's only me.... if you haven't tested yet, please do and comment your experience below, or if you know a possible solution share it with Tech Community.
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.

Closed all OFFICE apps except TEAMS, check box, restarted Teams, did not remain checked when I opened.
Re: MS Teams New Meeting Experience auto-unchecked
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.
