New Teams meeting add-in is missing from outlook

The Private Message helps only the one user. Please place the resolution for everyone to see.

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 problem has really been resolved now as Microsoft have a working 64 bit plugin for the new Teams and a 64 bit install for the new teams.
The steps are:

With Microsoft Teams Classic "Switch to New Teams",

Then:

Look in programs and features and uninstall Teams Machine wide installer.

Look in programs and features and try to uninstall Teams Classic - It will say it is already uninstalled,
Look in programs and features and uninstall the Teams plugin
Now:
Restart the computer
Start Teams and make sure it is logged in. - Very important.

Open Outlook.
Click on Calendar and hey presto the plugin is there and finally working correctly!
What a faff.

For the more technical we also found that Outlook was still reporting many instances of the Teams Plugin in Slow addins when we clicked File in Outlook. as a result of our many efforts to resolve this nonsense.
This was solved by removing them from the registry. There are lots of notes on this on the internet.

A new version was released to fix the missing add-in issue, so you should be good now.

Is the Teams version to fix this 24004.1307.2669.7070? Because I am on that version with Outlook on the latest version of 2401 (Build 17231.20236) And still not showing in the calendar with the Teams Meeting Addin.

I'd be interested in this link too ... can't see where to do the update

Why is the TeamsMeetingAddIn.msi failing to install in your scenario?
GPO? AppLocker?

The best suggestion we can give would be to run a script that deploys TMA, as described here
New Microsoft Teams for Virtualized Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Learn

Is this ONLY supported for VDI? The article linked talks about cases like "DisableUserInstalls", and then goes on to suggest installing to a per machine location with ALLUSERS=1, etc. Is this valid for use on a fleet of many thousands of workstations where MSI per user installs are disabled?

We are still looking for an answer on how to handle this in a supported way, that doesn't require us to remove the policy of "DisableUserInstalls"
