Hello Teams Community, I have a user who reported this issue to us. He was trying to schedule a teams meeting on Outlook but he cant find the Team meeting option button.

Hi @IBN Does this problem only happened in this specific users? If you still don’t see the add-in, make sure that it isn’t disabled in Outlook. In Outlook, choose File and then Options. Select the Add-ins tab of Outlook Options dialog box. Confirm that Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office is listed in the Active Application Add-ins list If the Teams Meeting Add-in is listed in the Disabled Application Add-ins list, select COM Add-ins in Manage and then select Go… Set the checkbox next to Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office. Choose OK on all dialog boxes and restart Outlook. For more details about its troubleshooting, you could refer to this article . If the answer is helpful, please click "Accept Answer" and kindly upvote it. If you have extra questions about this answer, please click "Comment".

Among the other answers, please also ensure that you are running the proper version of Teams. There are two different Teams apps: One for home and small business One for work and school Please be sure to install the proper version. In my case, it was Teams for Work or School. The user had logged into Teams for home due to it being the version that is integrated into Windows 11, and their chats were not syncing and they did not have the 'New Teams Meeting' button appearing in their Outlook.

Step 4 will not work.

In Manage, select the drop-down, select Disabled Items and click Go.

In Disabled Items dialog box, select every entry which has teams anywhere in the line (Press Ctrl key to select multiple entries

Click Enable

Change Dropdown to COM Add-Ins and click GO

In the COM Add-ins dialog box, ensure "Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office" and "Microsoft VBA for Outlook Addin" are both checked

Other items may also checked. Click OK

For the settings change to take effect, all open Outlook windows must be closed.

After waiting around 30 secs, relaunch Outlook

Select Calendar and then the Home ribbon will now have the "New Teams Meeting" icon

P.S. Microsoft VBA for Outlook Addin is needed so that link to join a meeting is the nice 2Click here to join the meeting" and not a long ugly URL link

In the COM Add-ins dialog box it shows no add-ins.
There are no Add-ins in the disabled add-ins list.

The new MS Teams is not integrating with MS Office Outlook meeting scheduling window. We have to install Classic Teams which worked perfectly.
