MS Teams Does Not Close - Option To Run in Background Not Selected

Hi,

MS Teams Does Not Close for me.

I have the option to run in the background not selected.

When I close Teams with the red x in the top right corner, it crashes instead.

Stays active in system tray and task manager.

If I try to open Teams again, I must first select Quit from the system tray, and then re-open the program.

Thanks

    @Beach, Sean ,

    “On close, keep the application running” is the right option for your scenario. You should unselect this option. Then, close Teams with the red X at the top right corner.
