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?

    This is only a temporary fix because as soon as the app can update again, it'll go back to not collapsing

    Close app- go into the start menu- microsoft teams- right click- more- settings- reset. None of the other things worked, but this did.

    This worked. Did Terminate and then Reset.
    I had dark mode on initially and it booted up with light mode and back with the chat section minimized.

    Thank you!

    Edit: It has been 3 working days (09/09/24) using Teams daily, full shift and issue has not reoccurred after fix.

    Edit 2; Jinxed myself. Issue returned about 4 hours into shift. Did Terminate and Reset again. Resolved again. Probably going to be a reoccurring issue up till or if ever its addressed.

    Try signing out of Teams if you're still having this issue. I just did it & it worked.

    TYSM! This worked! For anyone asking if files will be deleted, mine did not.
