I appear to be the only one on our team (suddenly and inexplicably) missing the Gif button on my Teams desktop App/browser. It appears the same when I log on via edge. Where has my GIF button gone and how do I get it back?

    If you update your teams, you'll lose the GIF button. You can swap back to the old/original teams to bring the GIF button back, until they fix this function on the updated version. Have fun sending laughs around work :)

    GIF button gone this morning. Others in my organisation still have it. Privacy > Optional Connected Experiences didn't work, and pressing Windows & period brings up emojis but no gifs. The messaging options have changed ....
