Teams Meeting Link Created in Outlook Calander

Hi

 

When I create a Teams meeting in my outlook calendar, the link created is treat as text with no hyperlink

 

As you can see in the picture above. When I right click on the Join meetings or Meeting Options Ionly get the standard Cut, Paste etc no matter how I try it wont work (It used to work untill a few days ago)

 

Thanks in Advance

    Make sure that Outlook has Rich Text or HTML as the default message format.

    You cannot have hyperlinks if the default format is plain text.

      Thanks for reply.

       

      I checked and it is set to HTML and there is no option for Rich Text

        Does your IT department have link checking/spam software in place like MIMECAST? Have you tried the web view of Outlook to see if you have different results?
