Dark Theme Problems in MS Teams (Solutions tried but failed).

Hi Nguyen,

I had the same issue. In the new Microsoft Teams, click the three dots on the left hand side of your picture or avatar. That is the settings menu. Click settings, then on the left hand side panel menu click appearance and accessibility. Look for Theme and click the dropdown menu under that and choose classic. That will solve the problem.

Hello Nguyễn,

Please, can you follow the steps below to revert to classic Teams and confirm if there is no problem with dark theme:

If you'd like to switch back to classic Teams, it's easy to toggle back and forth. To switch back to the classic Teams, turn off the New Teams toggle at the top of Teams.

Hi,

I'm using the new Teams (as the picture I given; the old version of Teams always force me to use the newest one).

My settings are fully in "Dark", and this also affect to Teams, however, not the left vertical bar.

This is my school account, and moreover I found that there are many other people got the problem like me. Not sure what makes this happen but I hope the problem should be fixed as soon as possible.

Thanks.
