Teams on Mac (High Sierra) says "You're not on Teams yet…" BUT I AM! :(

Installed new MS Office for Mac 2019 on High Sierra 10.13.6.

I recently updated my security back to be my phone number so I keep getting the 30 day security notice, which is soooo annoying.

I can now sign into Team on Chrome (not Safari), so why can't I use the desktop app?

I already tried removing suggested Application Support files. Also uninstalled it and reinstalled Teams. No good. Still says "You're not on Teams yet…"

WHY???????

Microsoft 365 and Office | Install, redeem, activate | For business | MacOS
Microsoft Teams | Development

    One possibility is that your copy of Office is out of date. Office running on High Sierra no longer receives updates. You have to be running at least Catalina to get 16.56, the current version.

    This would be very disappointing as my Mac can only go to Mojave (+ new GPU).

    Surely i could sign in?

    Would the security thing affect it?

    I tried that first and It didn't work.
    Then removing ALL Teams related stuff and re-installing. Didn't work.

    Tried a test account to get the message: Teams has already been set up for another address!

    Gone back to normal account. Still same "You're not on Teams yet…"

    Which of these should help?
