How to Fully Close Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is a collaboration software that has been coded with plenty of accessibility options and features. One of these accessibility features is its ability to persist even after it has been closed by the user.

How to Fully Close Microsoft Teams

When the user closes Microsoft Teams on their desktop, the program leaves the user’s desktop taskbar but minimizes itself into the start toolbar of the user. This means the user will still get notifications from their Microsoft Teams even if the user has “closed” the program.

  • Step 1 – Open or Launch the Desktop Version of Microsoft Teams

  • Step 2 – Open or Toggle Desktop Tool Bar

    The user must now open or toggle the start menu’s extended toolbar to access specific options or actions about Microsoft Teams. The extended toolbar can be toggled by pressing the ^ button on the user’s toolbar. There are some cases where the icon of Microsoft Teams is not located on the extended toolbar and is instead on the toolbar itself; if that is the case, you may skip this step.

  • Step 3 – Fully Close Microsoft Teams on the Tool Bar
