I don't even know man. I used to click a teams link and teams would pop up. Now a splash screen for "new" teams comes up and none of my programmable mouse shortcuts work and it seems like sometimes it launches through a browser, other times it doesn't. I have personal and two work accounts which makes things complex too.

Edit; oh, and if I click on teams icon it says do you want to use "new teams" or "classic teams"? If I click on classic a brief screen pops up and in small print it says classic teams died in March of 2023 - Rip. Then the whole app just shuts down. It feels very amateur.

I genuinely would love an opportunity to scream at the people who decided to release new versions of teams and outlook.

I have yet to find anything at all better about "new" Outlook. The fact that I can't scroll through my calendar anymore is maddening.

May they step on a Lego barefooted in the middle of the night.

The "new" version isn't even a native app... It's just the web version. It's missing a whole heap of features from regular Outlook, like support for native add-ins. It doesn't feel like a native app; the UI doesn't follow the design standards of any desktop OS.

Also, if you want to use it with an IMAP or POP email server, you have to connect it to Microsoft's cloud, and they store a copy of your email! https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/imap-without-microsoft-cloud-in-new-outlook/0e17ab6b-48f2-42dc-9e61-f219f7521289

My favorite part is how they removed useful functions that worked perfectly well on the old version.

They are now cloud based so that it is easier for Microsoft to train AI models.

Both of them are the same thing but require edge to be installed

Apparently the prompt for asking is triggered because the "new" version is a different executable than the shortcut you're using is pointing to. So you could fix that by creating a new shortcut.

Another fix would be to get rid of Teams, but when you're on a corporate license there's not much we can do about that

The new executable is "ms-teams.exe", with a hyphen

You can uninstall new teams and old teams still works fine
