By mistake i have clicked on some icons which shows Red bell and exclamation mark in my Microsoft Team chat files which also leaves the message as unread. Tried to look for the options to remove it unfortunately not able to remove. Icons shows on both the desktop app and the Teams web as well.

See above the icon details. Any Suggestions  ??

    Sorry, I misread your question, I thought you are asking how to change the status. I apologize for that.

    I'm assuming you are the sender (not the recipient), please hover the mouse over the message. You will show the list of emoticon shows up > please select (...) > delete.

    Hi

    My name is Daniel. I am an Independent Advisor.

    As of the moment, I'm afraid it's still not possible to remove priority, urgent and Important notification.

    However, I believe this is indeed a critical feature to be developed by the developer team. Feel free to submit your vote in the following article: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555...

    Kind Regards

    That priority is set to the message sent by another colleague of mine. I remember clicking on three dots but not sure how that has been set. But now can not remove the tag.

    Note : That priority tag is only showing to me though there are other people in the conversation.
