Avoid editing on Teams

Hello,

It is possible to open documents in preview mode in Teams as a default behavior still giving the option to the user to edit the file in the desktop app if needed? It seemed to be the default behavior i the past and I would like to restore it, as editing in Teams is still not mature enough for us.

    Hello Borja,

    According to my test, it isn’t feasible in Teams. When we open an Office doc in Teams, by default, its behavior is “Edit in Teams”.

    If this feature is important to you, I’d like to suggest you post a feedback at Teams UserVoice: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public?query=document%20preview%20mode , Or vote for this link: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/39242773-return-the-default-document-view-to-view-mode

    We’re sorry for the inconvenience this feature has caused to you, your time and understanding will be greatly appreciated.

    Best Regards,

    Anna
