Microsoft Teams status is stuck on "Out of Office"

This is what finally worked for me to solve this issue this morning.  Nothing near as complicated as other posts/processes.  I went into my out of office auto reply in Outlook and set it to only display during a certain time frame today (even though I am in the office today) instead of all the time.  I did this at 8:20 am.  I set the auto reply/out of office message to expire/stop sending at 8:30 am today.  Problem solved.   Status immediately changed to only AVAILABLE at 8:30 am today.

With that said, I think it's ridiculous that Microsoft automatically uses the verbiage from your out of office message in Outlook to use in Teams.  I want a different message for my contacts in Teams.  Hopefully this will change soon.

Hi Krishen,

Thanks so much for including your steps for on a Mac! I worked through deleting the cache too. I quit teams then 

I cleared this one:

~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/Application Cache/Cache/

I also cleared:

~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/Service Worker/CacheStorage

Once I also emptied the bin and reopened teams it was all good. Worth noting though that I have also deleted teams from my mobile so there was no app data being stored on there.

Good luck everyone!

So glad it helped and thank you for noting that additional step! Maybe we'll get to the bottom of this one! Have a great day :) Edit: Oh, just saw the bit about deleting Teams from your mobile-- I did not do that when I resolved my issue (Teams remained on my phone).

I deleted the Application Cache, as well as deleting and declining a week-long out of office calendar event from a colleague I'd previously accepted (had to dig it out of the trash to decline it). I also deliberately set myself as out of office for 15 minutes. None of those things cleared the status right away, but about 20 minutes after the deliberate out-of-office event, the status cleared up.. no idea which of those things caused the "out of office" status in MS Teams to go away, but one of them did, so I'm listing them all here :) Note that I did NOT get around to deleting the blob_storage, so don't think deleting that one is necessary.

Note I'm on a Mac, so instead of deleting the items in %appdata%\Microsoft\teams\application cache\cache, I deleted them from ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/Application Cache/Cache/:

kgreenwell@srq3288:~$ cd /Users/kgreenwell/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/Application\ Cache/Cache

kgreenwell@srq3288:~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/Application Cache/Cache$ ls -l

Hello!

I'm experiencing the same thing. I can't change my status although I've updated my out of office reply. :(
