Outlook add-in and disk activity
Getting the same issue.
Have managed to mitigate by setting the two files as read only for now.
attrib +r %appdata%\..\Local\Temp\*.db*

Thank you this solved it for me!
For others, step-by-step instructions that worked for me are below.
- Launch an Administrator/Elevated Command Prompt (Instructions on how to do this)
- Navigate to your working temp directory by entering the following into your elevated command prompt
cd C:\Users\user.name\AppData\Local\Temp
In example directory above replace `user.name` with your windows login name
- Now paste the following and hit Enter key
attrib +r %appdata%\..\Local\Temp\*.db*

Recommendation from Microsoft Support yesterday was to revert to the semi-annual channel which is not showing this same issue. I'm reluctant to do this across all my users as there have been several new features introduced in the monthly channel since the last semi-annual channel release so they would lose functionality.

This workaroud is working. But what about removing rights on the db files ? Will it be an issue later with updates ?

- JasonGormanMay 08, 2020Copper ContributorIs there a more permanent solution for resolving Outlook/Teams link causing 80-1000% system utilization than the work around posted in link below? I ask because this has to be repeated every time Teams updates. Please advise!Launch an Administrator/Elevated Command PromptNavigate to working temp directory by entering the following into your elevated command prompt:cd C:\Users\user.name\AppData\Local\TempIn example directory above replace `user.name` with your windows login namePaste (or) Type the following and hit Enter keyattrib +r %appdata%\..\Local\Temp\*.db*

This issue is really annoying almost all our users.
We use the workaround but it cames back every week/month/...
We need a patch !
