New Teams prompting "The parameter is incorrect" error.

New Teams has been advertising itself to many of my users. Majority of the company has made the switch, but others are running into a parameter error. Strange bit is, I can get it to work for about 5 days. Afterwards, I'm guessing an update takes place, and New Teams refuses to open and throws a parameter error. I've tried reinstalling the application multiple times and downloading the app installer. Nothing seems to work.

C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\MSTeams_23285.3607.2535.937_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\ms-teams.exe

The parameter is incorrect.

    Hi, thank you for coming to the forum, my name is Femi. It is worth noting that this is a user community, and we are all users here, much like yourself. While we strive to assist and share insights, we are not Microsoft directly.

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble opening Teams and getting a parameter error.

    The parameter error might be caused by a corrupted installation of Microsoft Office. You can try to repair your Office installation by following these steps:

    Open Control Panel - Programs and Features Click Microsoft Office in the list of installed applications At the top, click ‘Change’ On the resulting dialog, click ‘Repair’ - choose the Online Repair, it is a comprehensive fix

    Another possible reason for this error is that your Teams app is not updated to the latest version. You can try to update your Teams app by following these steps:

    Open Teams and sign in to your account Click on your profile picture at the top right corner Select Check for updates Wait for the update to complete and restart Teams

    Best Regards,
