Microsoft Teams - Autostart (Again)

[SimonInOz]

Hi,

 

We are trying to build up our teams environment, and I really don't want the software popping up before we are ready, as it raises expectations.

 

I think the last office update has finally broken all the group policy stops I had in place, including removing the start items for com.squirrel.Teams.Teams

 

Has anyone else encountered this, and solved it? I am starting to think this is not solvable, without distributing a custom .json file.

 

The teams office365 console offers no options in relation to this.

 

Pretty frustrating really.

 

Thanks

Hey. I have found a post from Microsoft. There is a section that mentions how to stop it auto starting if you have already installed. Might be helpful: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/deployoffice/teams-install#use-group-policy-to-prevent-microsoft-teams-from-starting-automatically-after-installation. I think you have to GP the script to run on a user basis.

Thanks Sam, appreciated. I have seen this, unfortunately, it is already installed so this has no effect. My mums family is from Northampton, am in Oz!

Small world! Did the script in the green box not work? I think that sorts it if it is already installed! You have to run it through GP in User Config (if I remember correctly).
