New Teams - Backgrounds Folder
- Oct 23, 2023
This folder is used by the older version of Teams, and the folder you mentioned is the same one I talked about - %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams.
The new Teams version has moved this folder, and while searching on my device, I found the images at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Microsoft\MSTeams\Backgrounds\Uploads."
Tks!
Hello
welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Yakubu Suleman I'll be happy to help you today.
I understand that you want to know where the background folder in the new teams folder is located.
To access the new teams backgrounds folder, you need to:
Close and sign out from Microsoft Teams.
Open your Windows computer File Explorer (by hitting the Windows key + E).
Navigate to the Teams default image backgrounds directory: C:\Users\ <enter_your_windows_your_user_name> \AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Teams\Backgrounds
Open the Uploads folder and place the image you want within it.
Optionally, you can make a copy of the Backgrounds folder as a backup or pin the Uploads folder to Quick access.
