    To uninstall Microsoft Teams, you can follow these instructions based on your deployment type:

    For User-Deployed or Per-user Admin Deployments:

    1. The classic Teams app will automatically uninstall after the new Teams installation. If users aren't signed in for an extended period, ensure that new Teams is deployed machine-wide.

    For Admin-Deployed Teams Machine-Wide Installer:

    1. Use your existing deployment tools to uninstall the Teams Machine-Wide Installer. This will trigger the uninstallation of classic Teams for each user as they sign in.

    PowerShell Commands:

    • To remove Teams from all users' computers, use:
        Get-AppxPackage *MSTeams* -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
      
    • For an individual user without administrator privileges:
        Get-AppxPackage *MSTeams* | Remove-AppxPackage
      

    To Install Teams Again:

    1. After uninstalling, you can download the latest version of Microsoft Teams from the official Microsoft website and install it by following the on-screen instructions.

    Make sure to restart your computer after the uninstallation and before reinstalling to ensure a clean installation process.
