Cant change Team picture !!
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:

This is awesome ! THANKS 🙂
but I cant find the spot in all that script. Any help how I can locate it. noseratio
Why would they not fix this ?
thomascarrera168 in a browser, right-click on the disabled button ("Upload Picture" or "Save") and choose "Inspect" from the context menu, it will get your right there. A basic knowledge of HTML is required. I don't know why they would not fix it, but I've send them a message on twitter.
Dude, I can "inspect" the upload picture, remove "disabled" and then upload a picture.
Just as you said.
But I cannot "inspect" the 'Save' button. It is greyed out, and nothing happens when I right-click.
My other strategy was to scroll down the html...in the right hand column...but I cannot find the relevant script for this 'Save' button.Therefore I cannot save the uploaded picture. I can only select 'Close' and the picture is lost. Help!
- That's incredible. Worked perfectly, thanks!

We managed to work it around with F12 tools because their back-end code actually works as expected and allows us to save the icon. If they wanted to prevent us from saving it, they would have done it there, on the server-side.
I can't help with Instagram, don't have an account there and not interested in creating one, but the same logic would apply. Perhaps, they just prevent it on purpose at the back-end.
- Pfft... HAHAHahahaa. This works great! Removing the disabled attributes of the two buttons absolutely resolves this. Good job MS.
- Hi! Please can you help me? 🙏🏼
