MS Teams Helper using up >100% of CPU MacBook

Anonymous

Since the latest update of MS Teams (current version 1.3.00.9271 updated on 07/05/20) on a MacBook (early 2015), every time I now join a Teams call, the Microsoft Teams Helper is using >100% of CPU and causing the laptop to overheat. I have disabled the GPU acceleration as seen on some other message boards but this has no impact, and could do with a fix for this ASAP.

Many thanks in advance.

My impression is that Teams 1.4.00.7175 is considerably better. It still makes my fans spin up, but it doesn't seem to make the rest of the system slow to a crawl. Does anyone else have the same experience?
