'Copy Link' for Folder/Files does not work in Teams

When you access a document library using the website/SharePoint tab and click on 'copy Link' the dialog opens up and has a spinning circle constantly, doesn't load.

Great
It works for me as well!!!
Strange thing is mine updated 8th of june but only today it worked
Yesterday I thought, how can this still be possible as I had this issue for a very long period of time
(opening the Team in SharePoint the copy link always did work as workaround)
but happy now 🙂

For the Sign Out Everywhere
After opening this link; https://myaccount.microsoft.com/%20target=
Click on Security Info in the left column. Then in the right pane you will see something like; 'lost device? Sign Out everywhere link.
I give it a try and will see tomorrow... Because after my previous positive post that it was partly working again today again a Spinning wheel....

Well Sign Out Everywhere did not do a thing for the 'Copy link' spinning wheel problem in Microsoft Teams Desktop app on Windows 10. The problem is still there/back. I say back because couple of days ago it was working partly for links to files and folders under the root 'Documents/General'. See screenshots in my previous post.

  Had a user with this error today, any link he copied did the same as everyone has described, Spooled and never loaded.
  User cleared cache etc.., no change
  Had user turn off setting Disable GPU hardware acceleration (requires restarting Teams)
  
  Once teams came back up he had the option to copy links again.

    I can confirm that after disabling GPU hardware acceleration under general settings in Microsoft Teams Desktop and after signing out from Teams Desktop and signing in again, that the Copy Link works again on the subfolders only.(as I had posted before). So still not working on root folder and also not giving the option for the link within Teams. Only SharePoint link is offered.
    After re-enabling the GPU hardware acceleration under general settings in Microsoft Teams Desktop again, signing out and signing back in the Copy Link option is still working.
    So this triggers something(temporarily)...
