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.

    What's all this "new teams/old teams" about anyway, if it's not just a way of saying "we were lazy and didn't complete testing before releasing it."

    "Expect bugs."

    That's an awful lot of words to spend not answering the question.

    Thank you!

    Why is it that the solution rarely comes from a Microsoft employee? Even the semi-official sounding "independant advisors" can't provide an answer or even understand the problem?

    But thank YOU again!

    Just delete the old teams icon from your status bar and click on the new teams icon and you'll never see the message again.
