Microsoft Teams

Question

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint keeps detecting that Teams needs to be updated even though it's updated (New teams latest version) and Classic Teams has been uninstalled. Trying to figure out exactly how Defender is detecting this, and how we can rid of it.

Thank you.

Hi @Adnan Javed

Teams tag is mainly focused on the general issue of Microsoft Teams troubleshooting. According to your description, your question is not in our support scope. The following suggestion is for your reference:

• Check update settings: Make sure your update channel and policy are configured correctly. You can configure the update channel through Group Policy, Intune, and PowerShell, refer to this.
• Clear cache: Please try to clear the existing Microsoft Defender update cache before checking for updates.
• Turn off update checking for Microsoft Defender.
