The new Teams will automatically install with new and existing installations of Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows. Learn how to exclude it from automatically installing on Windows.
In this post, I will show you how to exclude new teams from new installations. Admins who don’t want new Teams included with Microsoft 365 Apps on devices running Windows can exclude it.
Starting in late August 2024, new Teams will automatically install with new and existing installations of Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows. According to Microsoft, the new Teams app is faster and enables users to chat, meet, call, and collaborate all in one place.
Currently, users can install the new Microsoft Teams using the “Try the new Teams” toggle switch in classic Teams or by Admins bulk upgrading directly to the computers in their organization.
If your organization wants to postpone the upgrade of classic teams to new teams, you can do so through the Microsoft 365 apps admin center.
Exclude new Teams from new installations
Here are the steps to exclude new teams from new installations on Windows devices in your organization:
Step 1: First, sign in to the Microsoft 365 Apps admin center (https://config.office.com) with an admin account.
Step 2: Go to Customization > Device Configuration > Modern Apps Settings.
Step 3: Select Microsoft Teams (work or school), then clear the Enable automatic installation of new Microsoft Teams check box. Click Save.
