Hello,

I hope you can help me. Everytime I open a chat I am getting the pop up Titled "Send a Loop component", I click got it and it disappears, however if I navigate away from the chat it pops up on that chat and if I navigate back to the first/original chat it pops up again. It is very annoying. I can't find anything in the settings that stops it.

I clicked through each chat window I have clicking "I got it" in the hope that maybe one of them was holding the pop up flag and going through them would unflag it but to no avail. I have also uninstalled it and re-installed it.

I am running Teams on Ubuntu 18.04. I downloaded the Teams app from the microsoft site. It is called Microsoft Teams - Insiders. The version is 1.4.00.26453. My company has office365.

The same doesn't happen when I run it from the browser. I know the simple thing is to run it from the browser but I like having the separate tile for teams rather than having to search through browsers and tabs to find teams.

    @Ó Néill, Brian I know you have tried to reinstall, but it will keep some config still, and I think it could be some config mix-up. Can you try to quit (fully) Teams client and clear this folder ~/.config/Microsoft/Microsoft Teams/?

    Note, it will remove whole cache, so you may experience slower load time next time you run it and you will have to sign in again.
