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.

    My god awful Windows 11 Start menu lists mutiple copies of Teams. None of them say "New". How do I know which is the "new" teams icon to click?

    So frustrating that MS doesn't even bother to try thinking like its customers.

    In the Taskbar, Right click the new teams logo and pin it to your taskbar. Then right click the old logo and unpin from it taskbar. Done.

    YES! YES! YES! This is the only answer we need.

    Open by clicking on the new Teams shortcut, will bring you directly to what you want to.

    I usually open it by hit Start button -> type "teams" -> enter. But it still opens the old version.

    How to fix: do the same search in start -> right click on the old shortcut -> open file location -> delete or rename the shortcut.
