I can reproduce something similar:
Teams and Outlook open - Teams connected to my own tenant - Teams add-in is visible and working in Outlook.
In Teams, switch to a tenant I am a guest user in.
In Outlook, Teams add-in is still visible
Close and re-open Outlook - Teams add-in is no longer present.
In Teams, switch back to my own tenant, then close and re-open Outlook - Teams add-in is back.

- Oct 08, 2019Yeah as Rob pointed out, Outlook add in status / reg keys will update based on Teams current user / tenant connection when it's opened.
My recommendation is always just keep your Teams Desktop client in your home tenant and use browser or something like Franz to access your other tenants. Then you don't have to worry about it changing up until Microsoft irons out support for multi tenant / multi login.- Markus_JohanssonJan 13, 2020Iron Contributor

But this do not explain why Skype addIn is removed from Outlook right? It doesn't make sense when in another tenant in Teams will disable the possibility to create a Skype meeting from outlook in your tenant?- Tejas_HariaJan 13, 2020Former Employee
Markus_Johansson If the add-in is still there, you won't be able to create a Skype meeting, when Skype sign in is different than Outlook primary SMTP, and that is known behavior for long time.
- Rob EllisOct 08, 2019Bronze ContributorI have a support ticket open about the behaviour - I'll update here when I know more.
- Rob EllisOct 08, 2019Bronze ContributorIt appears to delete the whole reg key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\TeamsAddin.FastConnect and then add it back in when you switch back to your own tenant.
