Teams meeting add-in missing from Outlook and new Teams

  • Article
  • Applies to: New Microsoft Teams

Symptoms

Either you or your organization uninstalls classic Microsoft Teams and then upgrades to new Teams. You uninstall the program by using one of the following methods:

  • Any of the available options to uninstall programs in Windows 11 and Windows 10.
  • An administrative policy that triggers the removal of classic Teams. For example, organizations might choose to remove older versions of classic Teams from user computers to make sure that most users are on the same version.
  • The "new Teams only" policy setting to upgrade to new Teams. When a user is assigned this Teams upgrade policy, the new Teams app removes the classic Teams app from the user's computer after a set time.

After the upgrade, the Teams meeting add-in doesn't load in new Teams. Additionally, the add-in is removed from Microsoft Outlook.

Cause

When a version of classic Teams is uninstalled, the Teams meeting add-in is also uninstalled. The uninstallation process removes the registry keys that are shared across all versions of the Teams meeting add-in. Therefore, when new Teams and Outlook start, the computer doesn't find the installed add-in to load.

Resolution

For non-VDI environments, follow these steps to reinstall the Teams meeting add-in:

  1. Quit Teams.

  2. Close the Outlook app.

  3. Check the version of the Teams meeting add-in.

    To check the Teams meeting add-in version, select Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps, and then enter Teams Meeting Add-in in the search box.

    • If no result is found, or the version of Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office starts with 1.23, follow these steps:

      1. Download the UninstallOldTMA.ps1 PowerShell script.
      2. Open an elevated PowerShell window. To open the window, enter powershell in the search box. In the results, right-click Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.
      3. At the elevated PowerShell prompt, run the UninstallOldTMA.ps1 script to uninstall the Teams meeting add-in.

    • If the version of Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office doesn't start with 1.23, follow these steps:

      1. Download the UninstallTMA.ps1 PowerShell script.
      2. Open a PowerShell window. To open the window, enter powershell in the search box. In the results, select Windows PowerShell.
      3. At the PowerShell prompt, run the UninstallTMA.ps1 script to uninstall the Teams meeting add-in.

  4. Start the new Teams app.

  5. Wait until the Teams meeting add-in appears in the list in Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps.

  6. Restart the Outlook app.
