Why won't my Teams "Out of Office" status turn off?

worked for me.

The second optioned worked for me, when i had set up out of office, it was for a day, but some how system took it for 3.

Thanks for the solution.

What a piece of ****

No wonder so many of us hate Microsoft

This is the most unintuitive action ever. Why would I have to decline an invitation to change my OOO status? That should only make me either available or unavailable to the invitation itself, not my in-office status.

Every time I think MS got something right, they put all their effort into making something ridiculously wrong

Turn Off Automatic Replies OFF in the settings of the Outlook works fine for me.

Thanks a lot. It helps me a lot, Great !!!

I set my out of office a couple weeks ago and have not been able to find a way to turn the status off. I've tried for about 4 days now. Please help.

I found a fix that might be useful for OP. See steps:

1 - Open MS Outlook logged in the same account which is being used in Microsoft Teams;

2 - Turn off automatic replies in outlook, this can be achieved by clicking button available on top of outlook User Interface.

(Used Microsoft Outlook and Teams on MacOS)

3 - Check MS Teams status bar/ Or try reset status;

My solution for this problem was not related to any invite but rather because I had enabled automatic replies on Outlook. Apparently, it is not possible to have Outlook automatic responses turned-on while having a status which is other than 'Out Of Office'.
