Sending multimedia content and documents within chat conversations in Teams
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Q&A.
From what I can see, you're using Microsoft Teams on the web, and the error “We're having trouble loading your messages. Try refreshing.” usually points to a temporary issue with how Teams is loading chat data in the browser.
Let’s try a few steps:
1. Refresh the page
- Click the browser’s refresh button or press .Ctrl + R
- Sometimes a simple reload clears temporary glitches.
2. Clear browser cache
- In Chrome or Edge:
- Go to Settings > Delete browsing data or press Ctrl + Shift + Delete
- Click Clear data, then restart the browser.
3. Try a different browser
- If you're using Chrome, try opening Teams in Edge or Firefox.
- This helps rule out browser-specific issues.
4. Open Teams in an incognito/private window
- This disables extensions and cached data temporarily.
- If it works fine there, the issue may be caused by a browser extension.
5. Check your internet connection
- Make sure your network is stable.
- If possible, switch to another Wi-Fi or mobile hotspot to test.
6. Trying to use the Microsoft Teams desktop app. Sign in and try sending a message from there.
If the issue continues, please let me know:
- Are you able to send messages in other chats or channels?
- Is this happening only in one conversation or across all chats?
- Are other users in your organization experiencing the same issue?
