How can I get Teams to show a preview of a JPG or picture file immediately after sending it, instead of needing to click off and back on the chat?

I’ve tried signing out and back into Teams, restarting the app, checking for updates, deleting Teams cache and storage using the following methods on terminal:

rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/Cache/* , rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/blob_storage/* and rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/databases/*

but the issue persists. How do I solve this?

    Dear Tech Alex

    Good day!

    Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are glad to assist!

    Based on your description, I understand you concern with to show a preview of a JPG or picture file immediately after sending it. But it seems that this is a known limitation in the newer version of Teams, where images sent as attachments do not automatically show a preview in the chat.

    Here is a suggestion, you can use ESC to quick back to chat.

    In the meanwhile, we do understand your concern about this feature that how it helps you to improve your efficiency in such daily busy work schedule but as it is related with Teams product design, so it is suggested to submit your valuable feedback directly to Microsoft product development team by either go to Help from your dedicated App > submit Feedback or by posting on Ideas · Community (microsoft.com) . This is require because as we are from community team, we can only assist you to troubleshoot the query/share work around (if we have for any by design query) and providing you required information for feature’s availability status.

    This community team and Microsoft product development team are separate. So for feature’s suggestion or by design query, user need to submit feedback from their side to Microsoft product team. Once user send feedback via above mentioned way, it’s sent to Microsoft directly and it's routed to the relevant product teams who can review it.

    To check more details about how to submit feedback, kindly refer this article Learn about how to provide feedback to Microsoft - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn

    Thanks for your precious time and your understanding would be highly appreciated. Have a nice day!

    Best regards,
