Teams: Starts and shows Continue button that does nothing

Hi,

I just installed the Microsoft Teams desktop app. When I start it, it says "Welcome to Teams!", offers me a pulldown choice of "Personal", and a button "Continue". Clicking Continue does nothing. What do I do to start using Teams?

Thanks

Hi Iola,

I'm Nik, an independent advisor here to assist you with this.

To give you the background that MS Team free comes in two variants.

  1. MS, Team free personal account(accessible from mobile/web app https://teams.live.com). You don't need to sign for this as it comes with all Microsoft account

It looks like you got the MS teams personal on the Desktop app early to release on your device, but it has not yet worked completely.

I'd suggest waiting for Microsft announcement on MS Teams personal life launch that schedule to release soon this month.

For more, see https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/r...

Regards

Nik

    I'm having the same issue in July 2024 on a Mac.

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Try to login with Account (entered email address + pressed enter and entered password + pressed enter)-> endless loading
    2. Terminate App
    3. Start App -> The window from original Post shows up and the continue button does not work.

    PS: I'm using the stand alone app on a MacBook Pro with an M1 and I'm logged in with another account in a Chrome Browser.
