I can't switch from my client guest account back to my main company account

I use a Macbook Air, it is completely up to date, Teams App and all. I have tested multiple accounts with Teams and am familiar with the feature that in the Web Browser I can select which account I want to use. In the App I assume this feature hasn't been added for Mac yet. If it has, it isn't appearing in my app. 

 

My main problem now is that I accepted a Guest invite from my client and their account. I logged in as a guest to their account to both the browser and app, in both there was no option to switch back to my company account. I logged out and both now automatically take me to the client guest account. I asked my client to remove me from their account and when I log in Teams still takes me to the client account, but now I can't see any information in that account and the Post screen hangs. How do I get back to my company account? I can log into my Admin.Teams page, but I can't see from there how you might clear a cache or anything to reset my app.

    There's a way to leave an organization but that can only be done if your account isn't removed by the org as stated. I would like to suggest that clear all temp files and/or use "incognito" browser sessions, or InPrivate Window etc. so you're not being redirected automatically.

     

    As for clearing/resetting the Teams desktop app you can wipe all content in this location ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams

     

    Hope it helps!

      ChristianBergstrom Thanks for the quick reply. I voted for the feature. Should I delete everything or a particular file in the Application Support / Teams folder?
