Hi,

I have a PC with windows 11 and Office 365. I have installed the New Teams on it.
the user cannot create a teams meeting from outlook calendar.

When I looked for the add-in Options>Add-ins, I didnt see the add-in there, not even in the inactive or the disabled.

The add-in is installed when I looked in %AppData\local\microsoft\TeamsMeetingAddin..

I tried to uninstall Teams but again same problem.

I took the plugin from a PC that can launch teams meetings from outlook and put it in the folder of the PC that cant and it worked for a day now its not.

thank you

    This workaround worked for me.

    I unistalled the new Teams and clossed Outlook classic desktop app.

    Then I installed Teams classic from the official download page, clicking the button to download for personal accounts.

    Next, I logged in with my work account. This step made the trick for me, otherwise the add-in does not appear.

    After restarting Outlook, the Teams add-in reappeared and worked well.

    Finally, I reinstalled the new Teams from the official web page, clicking the button for work and school accounts, and logged in with my work account.

    Until now the Teams add-in is working as expected. No need to install the new Outlook (which btw looks horrible)

    I transitioned to the new Teams interface, only to discover that the Teams meeting options were absent in Outlook as well. Consequently, I had to revert to the previous version.

    Considering Microsoft's substantial financial standing as a multi-trillion-dollar company, one would expect them to allocate resources towards promptly addressing such issues.

    Same here at my company. We use Outlook Desktop app (version 2018). Uninstalled Teams Classic and installed New Teams today. The Teams meeting option in Outlook's new Appointment window has now disappeared and the AddIn no longer exists in Options>Add-ins (active or disabled). Even after various app restarts. Reverting back to Classic Teams does bring the addin back. We want to use New Teams though, so what can I do?
    I even tried taking a copy of the Classic Teams' Microsoft.Teams.MeetingAddin.dll file and then registering this manually using:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\regsvr32.exe /n /i:user "C:\Users\<path to folder>\TeamsMeetingAddin\1.0.23270.2\x64\Microsoft.Teams.AddinLoader.dll"

    And again, but trying the x86 path. Both times a message flashed up saying DllInstall succeeded. But alas, opening Outlook again I still can't see the Teams meeting add in option.

    (red circle shows where it used to be on the appointment creation window):

    This is quite pathetic. The New Teams app is great, but it still has a dependency on the old one (classic) being installed.

    I don't like the new Outlook but it's clear that I will have to start using it.

    When will we have a solution, Microsoft?

    I looked at the new Outlook, saw it was just OWA which being an old stubborn stuck in his ways technician didn't care for the vast amount of changes they did to it, so switched back.
