Hello,

I've switched to new Teams and they work great. However, every time I start Teams I get this message:

I don't want to switch back. Can I disable this message so I don't see it every time I start MS Teams?

Found the solution.

Teams have to be started using Microsoft Teams (Work Preview) entry from Start Menu, not the old one.

    It shows this message because your windows are running both Old and New Teams.

    You just need to Uninstall the Old Teams program -> DONE

    I finally did it.

    I signed out, signed back in with the NEW Microsoft Teams. I realized I kept signing in through my pinned icon in the start menu.

    Now I pinned the new version, and it doesn't keep asking me again and again and again if I want to Switch back........
