Teams auto selecting "Missed Calls"
I have the calls tab selected. On that tab I have "All" selected. I then click the Activity tab. Teams is selecting "Missed" on that tab. Why is it selecting "Missed"? The issue is when I click back to the calls tab Teams then selects the "Missed" on the calls area. Now if I click on "All" on the Activity tab and then click back to the Calls tab everything is fine. Seems like it is auto selecting stuff for me I didn't ask it to do.
Teams status ignores duration and resets status
I set myself to "Appear offline" with duration through "This week". But every time I step away from my computer and come back, my status resets to Available. Scheduled meetings on my calendar also reset my status (from 'Offline' to 'Busy'.) I deleted the Team app entirely and only use it on web now: That's slightly better, but I still show as "Available" first thing every morning. Is there a workaround for this? Is Microsoft aware of bug? I've seen this behavior reported before (last year) but it's only started happening for me as of the most recent update. I didn't see anything about it in the release notes and the documentation doesn't account for this behavior, so I have to assume it's not an intentional change.
MS Teams crashes *sometimes* during Video calls/meetings
I've been researching an issue where several users are experiencing periodic Teams crashes always during a Video call/meeting. A call that crashes once is often successful right after, and the crashes don't follow any pattern. I haven't found any commonalities across hardware or drivers, and have been checking network quality pretty closely. It really seems like it's a Teams software issue. Is anyone else dealing with this kind of inconsistent stability? The errors in logs (that I've seen) are always: Renderer process crashed; rendererName=mainWindow; crashType=crashed; url=https://teams.microsoft.com; restarting app=YES Other forum threads haven't been useful; they usually point to a software glitch that has since been patched, or some common hardware issue with a specific laptop model (Surface) or webcam (Logitech). I tried to figure out if I could disable GPU rendering (just as a test) and that doesn't appear to be an option. Is there another test we could try? This seems to be related to graphics rendering, particularly since it always happens during a beginning of a Video call or meeting, and the detail in the error logs... I opened a Microsoft support case, but it's going no where fast, particularly since the issue isn't reproducible on-demand. In my various testing and research, I tried launching Teams from a command prompt window (thinking maybe "--disable-gpu" would be an option to launch with). It launched and then I stumbled upon this strange output; I eventually canceled with Ctrl+C and Teams closed. I think this is totally unrelated, but figured I'd share it in case it ends up being relevant. The messages sure look like Teams is experiencing a memory leak ("MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected."). In any case, this output was on a system where Teams has never crashed as described before, so probably not the best clue.
Student chat disabled?
Hi there, I’ve started testing and setting up Teams for my education customer. I’ve gotten reports that teachers have a “This chat has been disabled. You can’t send send a message , but can view past messages.” Message when going to message a student. I have tried re-assigning policies but nothing that I’ve tried has worked. Any resolutions? Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jessie M. Hadaller EDIT: This issue only appears on the iPad app version of Teams. Version#:3.10.0Sync unread notifications between desktop and mobile
Running iOS 15.5. In the actual Teams app on my phone, conversations that were read on desktop show as read, however the challenge I'm facing is related to the notification center on my phone (i.e. the notifications that show up on the lock screen). Even though the app knows those messages have been read, the notifications on the lock screen still show up. The challenge is if I'm working on my desktop for a few hours, the next time I look at my phone I'll have a slew of Teams notifications in the notification center for messages that have already been read and it's annoying and time consuming to clear them. I've already blocked notifications in the app using the "when active on desktop" setting, but it seems as though this doesn't always work and I still end up with notifications on my phone for conversations I've had on desktop. Is there anything I can do about this or is it a bug?Teams Suppresses Sentiments in Meeting Chats
In December 2024, Microsoft introduced a control to block responses to sentiment-related prompts in Teams meeting chat. Now that block extends to every Teams user following a consolidation of the Teams meeting implementation of chat with Microsoft 365 Copilot. Basically, the block stops Copilot responding to prompts that look for opinions about emotions, judgement, or evaluations of other meeting participants. It’s a good thing. https://office365itpros.com/2026/03/13/sentiment-related-prompts/
Teams availability status - admin way to manage this?
We have some staff here who seem to be abusing the Teams status feature: they indicate they are "available" when they are away from their desk/computer. Management here as inquired if there is a way to enforce the Teams feature where it normally shows inactive after a few minutes. Is this possible?
Group email addresses for Teams sometimes contain “+” or “/” characters
We are using Microsoft Teams in our organization. When creating multiple Teams with exactly the same team name, using ASCII alphanumeric characters only, we occasionally see that the automatically generated group email address contains unexpected characters such as “+” or “/”. I would like to know whether this behavior is expected or if it is specific to our environment. This issue seems to have been occurring since around August 2025. We manually create Teams using the Windows Teams client. For example, if we create several Teams with a simple name such as “example2026”, the corresponding group email addresses are generated in the following format: email address removed for privacy reasons However, in some cases, the XXXXXX portion includes characters like “+” or “/”. When creating around 50 Teams, this issue appears in a few of them. This causes two problems for us: A “+” character interferes with plus-addressing behavior. When a “/” is included, we cannot create events inside the Team. Has anyone else encountered this issue or knows why this happens? Any insights would be appreciated.
