Trying the New teams, instead of my taskbar showing me a checkmark or away status. the taskbar teams just says "New"
Managing presence indicators such as Available, Busy, or Away to reflect user availability
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Same. Why the "new" label? Just give us back the presence status on the bar and tray icons. It's so much more useful.
Seriously, why would anyone come up with an idea to display a "new" label in a taskbar icon to indicate this is the new version ? LOL.
Im going back to classic one until this is solved.
Same problem as others. The green "new" label never goes away in the system tray. Works fine on the taskbar, but if I close the window teams disappears from the taskbar and I use the one in the tray to let me know if I have any messages pending.
Is there any fix for this yet, or do I need to go back to classic teams for that functionality? I rely on having the icon change in the tray to let me know I have unread messages.
I'm Still using the old teams so it displays my status since I haven't found a solution to get rid of the New label on my taskbar.
I have the same problem but the "new" label never goes away regardless of it I have a new message or not. Is there a way to change or fix this?
