Webinar not allowing register everyone?

I am not able to choose 'register everyone' for a webinar. Why this is not standard when all the videos were showing that I dont know. Can someone explain how to allow this in a way a layperson can understand? All I see is Powershell and lines of code but no description on what to do with them or how to use Powershell to do that.

 

I have copied the lines of code included in the 'setup for webinars in microsoft teams' page but when i copied the top line and pasted it into powershell I got this.

 

Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy : The 'Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy' command was found in the module 'MicrosoftTeams', but the
module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module MicrosoftTeams'.
At line:1 char:1
+ Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -AllowMeetingRegistration True
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoloadMatchingModule 

 

Again, this is not something you should be telling laypeople to do.

 

Is there anyone who can help please? Any videos?

 

I am the only user on Teams so I do have access to the Teams Admin Centre.

    1. Powershell -> Microsoft Store ->7.1.3.0
    2. Open as Administrator
    3. In Powershell

    Connect-MicrosoftTeams

    4 then

    Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity Global -WhoCanRegister "Everyone"

  • Hi,

    The command would be:
    Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -AllowMeetingRegistration $true

    Make sure you are running with an updated Teams PowerShell module, run to update:
    Update-Module MicrosoftTeams

      Thanks for the reply.

      Again as a layperson essentially I would go into Powershell (Im assuming open as administrator) and then where I can type I would simply copy and paste what string or code is provided yes?

        It seems I was able to update the Teams module but when I tried the second string it gave me this
        Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy : The 'Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy' command was found in the module 'MicrosoftTeams', but the
        module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module MicrosoftTeams'.
        At line:1 char:1
        + Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -AllowMeetingRegistration $true
        + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoloadMatchingModule

        Any thoughts?
