Teams on Windows 2019 RDSH

Hi,

How to uninstall Teams from one user profile ?
It has been installed as a per-user App and uninstall is not working

(That wouldn't be a real problem except that it is intrusive and runs at user logon. and I couldn't find a way to disable this intrusive startup...

Thanks

Hi @Lolix2

Do you mean you cannot uninstall Microsoft Teams in your device?

In my experience, you need to clean your client cache file before uninstalling Teams client. Please go to File Explorer and paste “%appdata%Microsoftteams” in the location box. Then open and delete all files from Application Cache, Cache folder, database folder, GPUCache folder, IndexedDB folder, Local Storage folder, and tmp folder.

For more details about uninstall Microsoft Teams issue, you can refer to:

I'm managing a farm of RDSH servers for 70 users.
They don't have admin rights.

Note that As administrator I've installed Zoom and TeamViewer which are RDSH compliant
It seems that Teams is the only web conference tool out there not being RDSH compliant.
It's so unfortunate that Microsoft products doesn't work together.

By deleting whatever related to Teams under %appdata% it seems that the startup popup has been stopped. For now.
I fear aggressive injunctions to use a product...

BTW, using Sysinternals "autorun" I didn't find any item related to Teams for that user. How Teams is launched at user logon ?

Hi @Lolix2 ,

Microsoft Teams uses modern authentication to keep the sign-in experience simple and secure. To see how users sign in to Teams, you can refer to:
