Controlling settings, permissions, and membership within Teams and channels
I have got images working now in Desktop Teams. Note: Images were showing ok in Teams Web App and in Teams Mobile App.
The steps that support took me through were:
Method 1: Reset the app
Note: When you reset the Teams app, the app data will be deleted. This includes any personalization settings that you might have configured.
- Type settings in the search box, and then select the Settings app from the results.
- Select Apps > Installed apps, and then type Microsoft Teams in the search box.
- Locate the New Microsoft Teams app from the results, select the More options button (...) on the right, and then select Advanced options.
- In the Reset section, select Reset.
- Restart Teams.
Method 2: Delete the files
- If Teams is still running, right-click the Teams icon on the taskbar, and then select Quit.
- Open the Run dialog box by pressing the Windows logo key +R.
- In the Run dialog box, enter the following path, and then select OK. %userprofile%\appdata\local\Packages\MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Microsoft\MSTeams
- Delete all files and folders in the directory.
- Restart Teams.
Neither of these worked for me - but technican indicated they are all that is normally required.
Method 3: Uninstall and Reinstall Teams
- Completely Uninstall Teams
- Restart your machine
- then re-install Teams using link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/microsoft-teams/download-app?msockid=1ccb15b5452b6e88335a03d144b46f7a
This worked for me - appreciate that you may need to get your central admin involved if you don't have permission to run these steps.
Hope that helps
