Potential bug: List view.
Hi, folks. I'm hoping someone can take the time to try reproducing the following new breakage so I can get some context around whether this is an issue only within my environment or Teams more generally. Issue When using the web version of Teams and choosing the "list view" layout from within Settings, web Teams hangs and does not recover. I've been able to reproduce this across multiple computers after having applied the March 2024 security update (KB5035845). It was not an issue prior to this update. Environment Windows 10 Enterprise, version 22H2 (19045.4170); Microsoft Edge 64-bit, version 122.0.2365.80; Web Teams, version 2 (aka "new Teams"); Group policy setting(s): InPrivateModeAvailability: Forced (documented here). It's important to note that only the Windows update was applied. There were no pending Edge updates waiting to be installed at the same time. Reproduction steps These steps will only be relevant if your organisation is forcing you to use "new Teams". I can't comment on whether this bug exists on the earlier version. Ensure you have configured the above group policy setting to enforce InPrivate mode, as there's already a number of critical differences in behaviour between InPrivate and "normal" configurations, meaning results from a "normal" mode test have no practical value to me. Log into login.microsoftonline.com with your work account; Select the "Office app launcher" charm and then "Teams"; When you are prompted to switch to "new Teams", do so (not that you have a choice); Go to the "Settings and more" menu and select Settings; From the Settings sidebar menu, select "Appearance and accessibility"; Within the "Layout" options, choose the "List" option; Within the app sidebar, select "Teams"; Teams now proceeds to hang; Close Edge (after optionally waiting on the standard Edge "this page isn't responding" dialog. If you leave Teams in the unwieldly "Grid" layout, the hang/bug does not manifest. If anyone has the time and patience to corroborate or debunk this, I'd appreciate it. Cheers, Lain
