Please help a newbie configure for Teams meeting recording
Please be gentle with me, am a newbie to MS Teams but have a pressing need to record weekly video meetings for our community group trying to persuade a telecoms company to provide us with fibre rather then copper wire.
Up till now I have used Zoom, but uploading the 125 Mb MP4 the our Teams can take up to six hours with our 0.8 mbps upload speed, if it will upload at all. It seemed much simpler to use Teams for the meeting, which will put the recorded file where it needs to be BUT... Microsoft tell me that free Teams will not save the recording: it will start and stop, but then says "cannot save to Stream".
I have now bought the cheapest 365 licence, and would like help on how I persuade Teams to save to OneDrive or Teams Files.
I am running Windows 10, and have downloaded and installed PowerShell 7.
Can anyone offer me or point me to an Idiot's Guide to saving a Team meeting recording into Teams file? I had tried but failed on the first of several complicated configuration steps as illustrated below.
TIA

- For recording and saving to Stream which is how its worked up until now will require a stream license applied to the person recording. What license did you buy? You can now also switch to the recording being saved in OneDrive or SharePoint by using Powershell. This will be a default and only behavior going forward! Read more here:

Regarding your error I’d try to start powershell as an administrator and see if that helps

Sadly, same via admin PowerShell (but at least I cracked how to copy text!) -- Paddy

Thanks Adam, I bought a Microsoft 365 Business Basic. It seems to let me get to various configuration options but all a bit baffling! I don't for instance know how to find out if I have a Stream licence, which it seems I must have even though it is being superceded.
I will try running PowerShell as admin as you suggest and report back.
Thanks for taking the time to help!
