First, make sure you’re using the latest version of MS Teams. Also, see if you can use the web version and if that’s the case, reinstall or update your app. Checking Microsoftโ€™s server status to outrule outages is also important.

  1. Press Windows key and click on Settings.settings windows 11
  2. Select Time & language on the left pane, then click on the Date & time option on the right.
  3. Enable both Set time automatically and Set time zone automatically by clicking on the toggle button.
