    Same problem. I cannot use any custom background images. My colleague has an almost identical setup as me, but he can change his background. He has a backgrounds folder, and I do not. Both systems are Mac Pro, Late 2013, with AVX1.0 support, Microsoft Teams Version 1.3.00.8663.

    Hi Jesryl, I have an older Macbook Pro and the blur background was there and now on the later version, it's gone.  It worked just fine before MS removed it.  do you have any idea if they intend to give its feature back as it clearly has no impact on computer performance whatsoever and at this time more than most, it is very helpful to have this feature?  To take it away is ridiculous and unnecessary.
