"steams?" That can't be right. I tried "msteams," but that doesn't work. It does indeed open Teams, but it doesn't open the link. It just opens Teams on whatever you were last viewing in it.
Thanks for the reply. This is definitely a global Microsoft problem, given that it now afflicts both my systems and obviously a growing number of people.
And yet Zoom continues to be able to open its application from links and a browser just fine.
What do you expect from Microsoft, the company that bought Skype but managed to miss out on the pandemic-driven explosion of streaming; and let Zoom eat their lunch. Now they've apparently just given up.
Remember: If your company is paying for Microsoft services, you can demand that they work. Don't just post in forums; demand the service that you're paying for.
