Hi,
If you check in settings you have the option "Open application in background", that will start Teams but it will only run in the background and not as open window when the computer starts. Test that setting.
There is also a uservoice requesting this setting to be configured globaly.
Start Teams with this parameter:
Update.exe --processStart "Teams.exe" --process-start-args "--system-initiated"
or in the registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"com.squirrel.Teams.Teams"="C:\\Users\\xxxx\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\Teams\\Update.exe --processStart \"Teams.exe\" --process-start-args \"--system-initiated\""
Update.exe --processStart "Teams.exe" --process-start-args "--system-initiated"
or in the registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"com.squirrel.Teams.Teams"="C:\\Users\\xxxx\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\Teams\\Update.exe --processStart \"Teams.exe\" --process-start-args \"--system-initiated\""
