One of a Team is missing the "About" tab from the middle pane of the Teams client for all the Teams members and Owners. How can I restore it? We have tried looking from the Web Version of Teams, deleting cache but it doesn't re-appear.

    Hi @Vivek Vardhan ,

    I performed some more brainstorming and found that the "Website" app was blocked in the Teams Admin center due to which the "About" tab was missing. Since the "About / Wiki" tab is also a kind of website, the end-user was unable to view it through Teams client or Web.

    Great to know that you've managed to sort it out and really appreciate it for your sharing!

    By the way, since the Microsoft Q&A community has a policy that "The question author cannot accept their own answer.

    Hello @Yuki Sun-MSFT , I had opened a case with Microsoft as well but didn't get any beneficial solution so far, I performed some more brainstorming and found that the "Website" app was blocked in the Teams Admin center due to which the "About" tab was missing. Since the "About / Wiki" tab is also a kind of website, the end-user was unable to view it through Teams client or Web.
