  • Hi KrisSub2023,

    Here's an idea for deploying the latest Microsoft Teams client (1.6.00.18681) to all Windows 10 systems in your organization:

    1. Get the Latest Teams Client Installer:
    - Download the latest Teams client installer suitable for Windows 10 from the Microsoft Teams website https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app

    Update history for Teams App Version (Desktop & Mac) (listed by date) - Office release notes | Microsoft Learn

    2. Prepare the Deployment:
    - Ensure you have administrative privileges on the systems for deployment.
    - Create a network share or folder accessible to all target systems where you can store the Teams installer.

    3. Create a Deployment Package:
    - Copy the downloaded Teams client installer to the designated network share or folder.

    4. Choose a Deployment Method:
    - Decide whether to use Group Policy or Configuration Manager for deployment, depending on your organization's setup.

    5. Deploy using Group Policy (for Example):
    - Open the Group Policy Management console on a domain controller or administrative system.
    - Create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) or use an existing one.
    - Navigate to "Computer Configuration" > "Policies" > "Software Settings".
    - Right-click on "Software installation" and select "New" > "Package".
    - Browse to the network share or folder containing the Teams installer and select it.
    - Choose the deployment method (assigned or published) and follow the prompts to complete the deployment.

    6. Deploy using Configuration Manager (also for Example):
    - Open the Configuration Manager console.
    - Create a new application or package using the Teams client installer as the source file.
    - Configure the deployment type, requirements, and dependencies.
    - Deploy the application or package to the target collection of Windows 10 systems.

    7. Test and Monitor the Deployment:
    - Begin by deploying the Teams client to a test group of systems.
    - Monitor the deployment process to ensure it completes successfully.
    - Verify that the Teams client is installed and functioning as expected on the test systems.
    - Once validated, proceed with deploying the Teams client to the remaining Windows 10 systems.
