I have installed Teams for work on my personal computer and it asked for administrator permission to install programs. I don't want my colleagues to have access to my personal computer and install programs on it. How can I check that Teams policies haven't affected my computer?

    Hi @Илья Осипов

    I understand your concern about your personal computer’s security. Teams policies are used to control the settings and features that are available to users when they’re using Teams, not to access or install programs on your computer. The administrator permission that Teams asked for was only to install the Teams app itself, not to grant any remote access or control to your colleagues or admins. Otherwise, viewing user Teams policies in Teams Admin Center by Teams administrator.
