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.

    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.

    Hi, here are the steps...

    1. Open the Application.
    2. Select 'Keep using the new Teams'
    3. In the 'Taskbar' you will see the icon of this application has been changed to NEW from the 'Classic'.
    4. Right click on the 'ICON' in the 'Taskbar' and pin to taskbar.

    Solved....

    Delete or remove the classic icon.

    Thanks. 🤗
