Hello Marianne2285

welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Recep I'll be happy to help you today.

I understand that you want get the numbers of unread chat on the new Teams or you change back to the old teams.

Please note that the New Teams version is still in development and not yet performing to its full potential, Microsoft is working on improving the UI to make it clearer for customers however to roll back to the old teams, you can revert by turning off the toggle at the top of Teams as shown in the photo below.


 

Otherwise, you can turn off Public preview by clicking on the ellipsis beside your profile photo > About > uncheck "Public preview"

I 100% agree with this post.  I would like to see the number of unread messages displayed on my taskbar.  Otherwise I will miss messages.  I switched back to the old version of teams until this is fixed. Hopefully soon??  Is this on the roadmap?

 

thank you!
