Remove Profile photos from Teams

Question

I need help with removing profile photos in Teams. We recently migrated to O365
Users are uploading ridiculous profile picture, so I need a power script cmd to remove them.
After I remove them I need to be able to load only professional pictures from HR locally saved pictures.

Hi,

the way to remove user pictures is using the exo powershell and the command Remove-UserPhoto "user1@Company portal .com" here is the reference to it https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/remove-userphoto?view=exchange-ps just be aware, that after deleting stuff, it might be still visibile afterwards for ~ 24h until the cache in all cloudworkloads gets an update.

For the Bulk upload/update of the user pictures you could use powershell, but depending on the size of your organisation this is a bit annoying. I would suggest you using the tool from the ms partner code two. They have an free software called "CodeTwo User Photos for Office" and that one makes things pretty easy to mass update user profile pictures.
