Two Work Accounts in Microsoft Teams App

That is right, as I can switch accounts on mobile but not on desktop. It needs you to sign out and is very inconvenient. I would like Microsoft to solve this problem as quickly as possible as it is a major issue for people with two accounts and one device.

Sounds good, doesn't work.

Logging out with the first account will lead to the first account not showing up in the "manage accounts" tab anymore after signing in with the second one (and vice versa).

Why in 2023, MS is not able to get this thing working on their desktop app while its totally fine on any mobile device?!

Hello AlbyGSP,

Yes, it's possible to create a second work account in the Microsoft Teams application without using a web browser. You can achieve this by following these steps:

1. Sign Out: If you're already signed into the Teams application with your first work account, you'll need to sign out to create a new account.
2. Access Accounts: Open the Microsoft Teams application. On the main screen, look for your profile picture or initials in the top-right corner. Click on it to access the account-related options.
3. Switch Account: In the account menu, you should see an option to "Sign in to another account" or "Add account." Click on this option.
4. Enter New Account Details: A new window will pop up, asking you to enter the email address associated with the second work account. Enter the email address and click "Next."
5. Sign In: You'll be redirected to the sign-in page where you can enter the password for your second work account. Enter the password and click "Sign in."
6. Two Accounts: Once signed in, you should now have access to both your first and second work accounts within the Teams application. You can switch between them by clicking on your profile picture or initials and selecting the account you want to use.

Please note that the exact steps might vary slightly based on the version of the Microsoft Teams application you are using. The general process, however, should be similar. This approach allows you to have multiple work accounts signed in simultaneously within the Teams app without using a web browser.

Thank you,

This issue is still not fixed as I see.
I'd even expand the question if it's possible to be logged in to 2 or more accounts at the same time, having multiple instances of Teams open. It just doesn't make sense in today's world to not be able to have multiple instances open or a very convenient, active account switching so I even get notifications all the time from all logged in accounts. I work with multiple customers, some using MS Teams and at the moment I have to use Teams Online, Teams App and another laptop just to cover 3 accounts.

nope it doesn't work. Now i can access only the 2nd work account. the one that was there initially is gone.
