Hi there, in some of our Teams, users are unable to upload files to Assignments. They get the error message "There was a problem attaching this file. Please remove and try again".

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
My issue was resolved by going into SharePoint and granting the student access to the assignment folders. It has happened twice in situations where a student stated in a class, left, and then returned.
Other issues I have seen is if the title of the file being uploaded is too long or is the same name as an attached file.
Hi Jordan,
Thanks for reaching us in community!
For this issue, you may let the users to use URL links instead of files in the assignment attachments as a workaround.
We'd like to know if it's a client related issue or not, you can check whether the attachments file can be upload successfully in https://teams.microsoft.com/ or not. If web-side works functioning, it should be a client related-issue.
Meanwhile, please kindly share us a screenshot of the entire failed page, so that we can have a better understanding for such a condition in case missing something.
Best,
