Unable to collapse the left side panel in teams anymore

As of yesterday, the display of my teams will no longer collapse the left side panel. I've tried settings, restarting the app, and restarting the computer. It used to open after selecting one of the options next to it, like chat or teams and then it would automatically close after I selected what I wanted from those options. How do I get it to collapse again?

    For the love of god @De Paul N. Kwizera, please respond! Dozens of people are having this issue and none of your solutions worked! I'm forced by my company to use this application, and this is a papercut that's slowly killing me.

    I was having the same issue but was able to resolve it pretty easily! Close out of Teams > Navigate to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps > Locate Microsoft Teams > Advanced Options under the 3-dots > scroll down to Reset and select it. Easier and quicker than doing an uninstall/reinstall.

    I could do a reset but would it delete everything in the app?

    Did a reset and I can shrink the window to get rid of the pane now.
