Teams Hanging/Freezing
In the last couple days for some reason, across multiple networks and end-users, Teams seems to be hanging/freezing for a few seconds, doesn't accept mouse clicks or typing, then it releases after 3-5 seconds. Restarting doesn't seem to help, just curious if anyone else has had this issue, maybe since the most recent version (1.2.00.34161)
Thanks

Donovon DildineYes. The same problem. 😞 Teams freezes a lot but does not unfreeze in a few seconds like in your case.

The problem became severe last Monday, Oct 19th.

I regularly have this problem. Oddly, hovering over the Teams icon on the Windows taskbar "unfreezes" it, but then it comes back (maybe 50% of the cases after unfreezing).

Donovon Dildine yeah we are seeing this issue in my organization as well. Some days are better than other. I've had Teams freeze on my for over a minute, then all of a sudden the message I typed prior to the freeze appears and all conversations all load, then it immediately locks up again. Has been happening to my group for a few months now but we are still new to Teams as an organization.

Been having this problem as well, pretty consistently. Going to try turning off read receipts, will report back.

this has been a problem since forever. I don't think it's threaded properly

Donovon Dildine Having this same issue particularly when video meeting in progress. Starting a second chat totally blows things up.

Chat is very hard to use if when I type, I hit a key and chat just sits there, then poof, 3-5 seconds later, it resumes and grabs what I typed and puts it in.

Donovon Dildine been having this issue on both of my devices for about 2 years. It's intermittent and driving me insane.

Just an FYI, we've had several users resolved by disabling the new Read Recipients option, then restarting the application. What is odd is we still seen to get the read reciepts, buts its better now.

Donovon Dildine I am currently facing the same issue, I'm wondering if it has something to do with the "seen notification". I also tried restarting both Teams and my machine to no avail.

wdelacruz88 Good idea, maybe it is, its a new problem, and its multiple users across multiple machines with multiple OSes.
- Haven't really noticed anything, it hung on my boss the other day, but haven't seen it happen since. At least for me.
