We are just about to begin our Office 365 migration from G Suite so no users are using SfB so I plan to start with Teams from day one. I've already set all the policies to Teams Only and that's fine.
Skype for Business still opens though at start up. When I go to it it gives me the message that your organization is now using teams with a button to open teams. Since my users don't know anything about skype I don't even want it to run on startup at all and use any resources. With the notice in Skype there's no way to go to settings and turn off auto start.
I could go to task manager and disable autostart but is there a cleaner option?
Thanks,
Charlie

How are you installing Skype for Business? Can you just modify the pro-plus install to not include the client?

This is how it's meant to work, which sounds like is what you are getting:
Microsoft is likely to depreciate the Skype client in due course or just exclude it from the Office installation perhaps or reconfigure existing installations

Where do you find this option?

Has this been solved yet? I've tried uninstalling Skype for Business and it keeps reinstalling itself?

Our Skype automatically migrated to Teams. So every time I start up my computer, the Skype for Business starts up and tells me it is now only available through Teams. I cannot remove the option of autostarting in Skype's Settings since it has already migrated over to Teams. Kind of stuck looking at it start up every day!

For us it is the complete opposite problem.
Because of S4B not being uninstallable we cannot be reached through Teams by some companies.
We kept S4B initially for some clients that still used only that, but they are now migrated too and the S4B-issue is nothing but a problem.
