I have changed organisation and when I launch the Teams Linux client, I am immediately taken to the old organisation's sign-in page with no option to change. I've tried deleting the cache and performing a clean install but the problem remains. Where are the organisation details being stored?

    Heyu,

    So since I really needed the app, T tried some things and it works now.
    This is what I did to fix it:

    1. I first uninstalled teams by opening the .deb file (I did it with Ubuntu Software).
    2. After that I deleted the whole teams-folder with all the informations. This was the path: ~/.config/Microsoft/Microsoft Teams/
    3. If you deleted the folder "Microsoft Teams" install the app again with the .deb file
    4. At this point I could log into my new school-organization.

    I hope it was helpful.
    Tag me if you have another result.

    Kind regards
    Hava

    I also am affected by this! I currently have to use the Web-Version, because I can't switch to the desired workspace in the Flatpak or native OS version (NixOS).
    Please fix this as soon as possible!

    The last version of this issue is now a bit more than a month old. How come there is not a solution in sight? Incredibly annoying.

    Same issue and still waiting. Before the last version, we could change organization. But now, it is impossible to work, in my case, with groups from other universities. Any News @Sharon Zhao-MSFT
