    With Microsoft 365 Personal, you can access Microsoft Teams using the same Microsoft account linked to your subscription. Open the Teams desktop app or go to teams.microsoft.com and sign in with that account. Once signed in, select Meet → Schedule a meeting to create a meeting.

    If you want to invite people without exposing your personal email address, avoid sending the invitation directly to attendees from your personal calendar. Instead, create the meeting in Teams, select Copy meeting link, and share the link through WhatsApp, LinkedIn, or your preferred business email. Participants can use the link to join the meeting, including through their browser.

    For additional privacy, check Teams → Settings → Privacy and limit the visibility of your personal contact information. If you regularly host professional meetings and want invitations to display a business identity rather than your personal Microsoft account, consider using Microsoft 365 Business with your business domain.

    Teams can be used with or without a Msft 365 subscription.

    If you don't have the app yet, download it from here: [https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-teams/download-app](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-teams/download-app

    )

    Just sign into your Microsoft account to use it.

    As for inviting people without showing your email address, instead of inviting them directly, create the meeting and then share the meeting link via other methods.

    However, I want to point out -

    If the other user signs into their Microsoft account to join your meeting, they can still see your contact card details. Unless you do the following first.

    Go to Teams settings > Privacy > Manage your profile.

    Make sure all email alias is set to "hide". This way when they hover over your username in the meeting, they won't see your email address.
