Teams to Begin Automatically Hiding Inactive Channels
From mid-July 2024, Teams will begin hiding inactive channels for users. The inactive channels can be unhidden, and users can opt out of the automatic process. The new clean up routine can be invoked...
Simon-Ludlow. Have you found a solution to this? - I have same issue and it's a big issue as important communication is not reaching the audience it is intented to!
Hi Maria,
No, we haven't found a solution for this issue yet. It is causing us a significant number of problems, with many users now reverting to email to send out updates and messages because they can't rely on those important messages reaching the intended recipients.
Implementing an update like this, which automatically removes notifications and alerts to any channels that a user hasn't posted in recently, really should not be pushed out by Microsoft without providing IT with any control over it.
Microsoft should have explained the system in detail, given us ample warning, and provided us with the ability to opt out of such a disruptive change to one of their most critical applications.
