Unable to Move/Drag Window using New Teams

I switched to "New Teams" about a week ago but since switching I am unable to move the window by dragging the title bar. I can resize, but dragging on the title bar does nothing:

I'm using Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19045 with a multi-monitor setup. I've done multiple restarts and had a windows update since starting to use it and the issue persists.

I had this issue until I installed the latest webview2 runtime installer (using the evergreen standalone installer). https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2#download-section

Teams uses WebView2 and my guess is that if you installed an older version teams would try to use this version - but if you had never installed it before it would install the latest for you.

About 6-7 of my colleagues had the same issue, and after installing the evergreen webview2 runtime on each affected machine they all work normally now.

Hello,

If anyone happens to get the same issue and nothing helps - reinstall WebView2. That's how I fixed it.

Take care

    When I try this I get "Installation failed. The Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime is already installed for the system."

    I had to completely uninstall WebView2 through add/remove programs, and then re-install with the installer. Now it works.

    I have the same version, and cant find an option to search for updates - it just issues occured while checking for updates. I wonder if it's because like yourself the company are rolling it over over a few months and I'm accessing it early?
