Cant change Team picture !!
Microsoft Teams - Error message "We're still setting up your team, you can change your picture when we're done." when attempting to change team picture.
Tried everything I found in all chats HELP very annoying
thomascarrera168 It's a bug in the Teams client-side HTML/JavaScript UI. Luckily the desktop client of Teams (it's Electron-based) shares the UI logic with the web client, so the workaround is simple. In your web browser, go to https://teams.microsoft.com/, login as the owner of your Team, get to the Change Picture dialog, press F12 to go to the browser's F12 Developer Tools, then in the web page's HTML view find and remove the "disable" attribute from both the "Upload Picture" link and the "Save" button (and their parents elements). I've just managed to change and save the icon like that:

- Hi! Please can you help me? 🙏🏼
- Pfft... HAHAHahahaa. This works great! Removing the disabled attributes of the two buttons absolutely resolves this. Good job MS.
In my case it's nearly one month now that the Team exists.
I'm on free version of Teams at the moment, so there is no Admin I could consult.- If you recently setup Microsoft Team, you need to wait.
It also happens if you are login as Guest and not with Microsoft Account.
Also check with Microsoft Team admin and see if there is any health issue with Team.
If problem persist, contact support. - Still same issue?
got the same problem for nearly one month now...
can't change the Team picture + there are no email adresses of channels set 😕
This is a big issue because it also wont generate an email address for the general channel !!! thomascarrera168
- How old is the team?
Try logging out/in if the client.
Try changing the picture on the web client or mobileI tried both ! All 3 teams I
created all do the same thing they are 24 hrs old. adam deltinger
- I’m sorry to hear! As said there’s some ongoing issues and delays in the service as of now. Just wait some more I guess
- It's only a issue with the free version - there's no solution - I've also looked
- Exactly. It's a known issue, and sadly nothing can be done about it. When you ask MS they pretend there may be some solution and run you around in circles but it never gets resolved. Sort of like Win10 issues that never go away with the taskbar, number lock, on and on, meaningless answers, no solutions, just lip service.
- It's not only an issue with Free version, it also happen with the Paid one. The solution is to wait some time (Some minutes) until it's possible to upload the picture.
jcgonzalezmartin I waited for about 5 days now. Still can't change team pic.
