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.

Same for me.
Interestingly it was fine yesterday before I chose the 'open in a new window' feature, though this in itself didn't seem to perform an upgrade:
You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.3.00.18164. It was last updated on 24/08/2020.
Same issue here:
2015 Macbook Pro (Retina) 2.7 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5. macOS Catalina
Intel 1536 MB Teams 1.3.00.18164.

On Video-call

Second that question. My 2017 MacBook Pro gets burning hot whenever I use MS Teams app, which I'm using daily for work. Very interested in the answer to this question.
Same issue here. Until a fix is released, use the web version which runs smoothly - not ideal, but a good workaround.
This problem still exists. Please fix it.
