Can you mute by default whenever you enter a TEAMS meeting? I know this option is available in WebEx, but can't seem to find it in the settings in TEAMS.

    Hi! This is Nicolle an Independent advisor.

    Usually, before you join a meeting in teams there should be a window that will appear on your screen for an option if you are mute or unmute before you click the "join" button.

    You can find also find useful answers in regards to that:

    In other words, you have to remember every time you join a meeting - this needs to change, to elevate MS to Zoom!

    Hard to believe this SIMPLE fix is still a problem for people. I barely use Teams and this is always an annoyance. I use Zoom and this has been an option for years. Crazy M$ wont fix it.
