Bulk upgrade to the new Microsoft Teams client

Direct or "bulk" upgrades are helpful because users don't need to manually download and install the Teams client. Microsoft provides an executable (.exe) file for the new Teams client so you can upgrade the application directly to the computers in your organization using your choice of software management tools, such as Intune or Configuration Manager.

The Teams installer installs the Teams MSIX package on a target computer, making sure that Teams can interoperate correctly with Office and other Microsoft software.

How it works

TeamsBootstrapper is a lightweight online installer with a headless command-line interface. It allows admins to provision (install) the app for all users on a given target computer.

When teamsbootstrapper.exe is run on a computer:

  • The installer downloads the latest Teams MSIX package from Microsoft
  • The installer installs the Teams application for all users on the computer, and any users who may be added afterwards.

Važno

Users who have installed a different Teams version will have their version replaced with the provisioned version.

  • Modifies the registry to allow Teams to work with Office and other computer applications.
  • Displays success or failure message on the command line

Važno

You must use the latest version of the bootstrapper.exe. If you have downloaded the .exe previously, verify you have the latest version by viewing Properties > Details > Product version on your version and compare it to the properties on the latest download.

    - MSIX x86
    - MSIX x64
    - ARM64
  3. Open the Command Prompt as an Admin.
  4. Depending on where your MSIX is located, do the following:

For local path, enter: .\teamsbootstrapper.exe -p -o "c:\path\to\teams.msix"

Example:

local path location for offline installer

For UNC, enter: .\teamsbootstrapper.exe -p -o "\unc\path\to\teams.msix"

Example:

If the customer tenant is on the GCCH, DoD, or Gallatin, the customer may need to set the initial cloud endpoint through the registry key listed below. Setting the endpoint with the registry key restricts teams to connecting to the correct cloud endpoint for pre-sign-in connectivity with Teams, as shown in the following:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Teams
Value = CloudType
value type = DWORD
  1 = Commercial, 2 = GCC, 3 = GCCH, 4 = DOD, 7 = Gallatin
Mac update

If the customer tenant is on the GCCH, DoD, or Gallatin, the customer may need to set the initial cloud endpoint through the .plist configuration key listed below. Setting the endpoint with the .plist configuration restricts teams to connecting to the correct cloud endpoint for pre-sign-in connectivity with Teams, as shown in the following:

Domain: com.microsoft.teams2
Key: CloudType
Data Type: Int
Value: {Enter number associated with the cloud}
  1 = Commercial, 2 = GCC, 3 = GCCH, 4 = DOD, 7 = Gallatin
