Anyone has any idea the Teams Meeting invite creation showing as text instead of html format?

I have tried

Quick Repair, Online Repair, Reinstall outlook, Reinstall teams.

Create a Teams meeting in Teams Calendar works with the usual format but when create the Invite in outlook, it show as text.

This is not normal -

    Hi @Chan, Keith  

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum. 
    We completely understand how frustrating it can be when something as routine as creating a Teams meeting doesn’t display as expected. 

    Here are a few places to check that might help you resolve the issue: 
    1.Double-check that your default message format is HTML.

    2.Disable and re-enable the Teams Add-in 

    Go to File > Options > Add-ins. 

    At the bottom, select COM Add-ins > Go. 

    Uncheck Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office, click OK, then re-enable it.

    3.Check Trust Center settings:

    If you’ve tried the steps above and the issue still persists, consider scheduling the meeting through Outlook on the web instead. This often bypasses local formatting issues. 

    I hope this helps.

    I am an IT admin and have the same issue with 3 of my users. I have had two microsoft support engineers in a meeting and we still have not been able to resolve this, even going down to the registry. I have rebuilt the laptop same result and also signed the user into a new laptop and the issue is present.
