[How this will affect your organization]
This change is expected to last through the end of 2020, and Microsoft will provide updates for further changes. Meetings recorded before August 20 are not affected by this change.
Following this change, your end users will continue to be able to record Teams meetings.
- To playback the meeting recording, participants will need to download the file from the chat window.
- To share or archive a recording, meeting participants will need to download the file and then upload it to Teams, Stream, SharePoint, or OneDrive.
Meeting recordings will be available in the meeting chat for a period of 21 days after the meeting. After 21 days, the meeting recordings will no longer be available for download from the chat.

Thank you for the explanation!
- It's not good for a lot of people. Especially schools who bought into teams for remote education. Teachers have had a hard enough time learning the basics of teams without adding more time consuming and arduous steps that they have to do.
- Exactly the situation I'm involved...

Bad move, Microsoft.I would wager that schools are going to be the most impacted by this change. This would be a clever move on Microsofts part. Making the changes right at the start of the school year. Schools can either dish out a large amount of money for better licencing or try to quickly teach a lot of already stressed out teachers a whole new process. Even after many training lessons and being given plenty of training material, we have teachers still struggling. Adding this is on top of everything else is almost impossible at this point, but the school doesn't have a big budget. Thus it's going to be a very hard next few weeks.
