Can we have Teams Updates via SCCM WSUS for Computer Based Installs

Question

We run 86,000 Health computers in hospitals. On average 500-800 users logon to EACH machine per month.

Teams "user install" takes up 1GB of Harddrive Space in AppData PER User, with the full application being duplicated in everyones profile.

Our Harddrives are filling up constantly.

We want to use the "Computer Install". However it does NOT auto update which is odd because Edge can Auto Update as an Enterprise Computer install.

We need Teams to be "Patched" via SCCM WSUS just like Office 2019 and Microsoft Chromium Edge is.

We are trying to update from Skype for Business but this harddrive limitation with the 1GB per user which is 500GB to 800GB of data per month is filling up our 256GB SSD Harddrives weekly.

@lforbes ,

Teams does not give admins the ability to deploy updates through any delivery mechanism. If Teams desktop client version is out of date, it will have impact on user’s normal use.
