Hi Hugocoffee,

To restore the deleted Team in Microsoft Teams, please follow the steps below:

1. Launch PowerShell as an administrator (Click Start > insert PowerShell, right click Windows PowerShell, click Run as administrator).
2. Insert Install-Module AzureADPreview to install AzureADPreview module.
3. Insert Connect-AzureAD to connect to Azure AD. When prompted, sign in with your account.
4. Once you signed in, you will see the following:

5. Insert Get-AzureADMSDeletedGroup to display all deleted Office 365 groups.
6. Find the group you wish to restore, and copy the id from the Id column to the clipboard. Next, to restore the deleted group type the following where [ID] is the Id of the group and press Enter:

Restore-AzureADMSDeletedDirectoryObject -Id [ID]

7. Verify group was restored successfully by typing the following command, where [ID] is the ID of the group you restored:

Get-AzureADGroup -ObjectId [ID]

Note: The process of restoring an Office 365 group and thus restoring the team in Microsoft Teams can take up to 24 hours.
