I managed to fix it.

Go to add or remove a program and remove Microsoft teams.

Go to program files\windowsapplications\Microsoft teams… and delete the folder.

Press on the chat icon on the start menu and it should fix it.

The issue occurs when MSTeams full version is installed and then try the Teams chat built into Windows 11.
