Status Stuck at "Status Unknown"

Hi P_Andrews :

Without knowing how much/little you know about getting around in Windows, I'll make it as simple as I can for you. If you can't do this, see if you can find someone to help you:

1. Right-click on your desktop and then click on New -> Folder and give it a name, like ResetIE.

2. Open the new folder you just created and then in the folder, right-click in the folder and then click on New -> Text Document and name it:  Reset-Ie-Default.ps1  

3. Right-click on the file you just created (Reset-Ie-Default.ps1) and click on Open with...

4. Choose Notepad in the dialog that opens.

5. Paste the following text into it and then save it and close Notepad:

} while ( $continue -eq $false )

6. Again, right-click in the folder and then click on New -> Text Document and name it  ResetIE.bat  like you did with the first file you created.

7. Right-click on the file you just created (ResetIE.bat) and click on Open with...

8. Choose Notepad in the dialog that opens.

9. Paste the following text into it and then save it and close Notepad:

Powershell.exe -Command "& {Start-Process Powershell.exe -ArgumentList '-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File %~dp0Reset-Ie-Default.ps1' -Verb RunAs}"

Now close Teams, Internet Explorer and Outlook (if they're open) and just double-click on ResetIE.bat whenever you need to reset your status. I hope it works for you.

Note: you may have to right-click on Teams in your toolbar and select Quit.

I hope that's easy enough and that it works for you, too! Good luck!
