The company did not give guidance on how IT admins can disable the personal Teams app in the Taskbar. If users accidentally try to log into the wrong version, Teams will inform them, according to the blog. Users that try to log into the built-in Teams with work or school accounts will be redirected to download Teams for work or school. Meanwhile, the version for personal accounts has a white tile with a blue “T” inside. That means IT administrators need to instruct users to use the correct version of teams for work or school, and the icon is identified via a blue tile with a white letter “T” inside, which is how the icon looks today for millions of enterprise users.

The company further explains that there will be two versions of the Microsoft Teams app for non-personal customers: one for personal accounts and one for work or school accounts. “The new Teams experience on Windows 11 and Chat are intended for personal Microsoft accounts and will be available only to individuals using such accounts,” according to the blog. However, Microsoft in a Tech Community blog now says that Teams will only be built into the Taskbar for personal Microsoft accounts. Most were expecting that feature to be a useful tool for the enterprise as workers would be able to keep their desktop screens less cluttered with windows and apps and make internal communications more efficient. One of the hallmark features of Windows 11’s productivity tools is the Microsoft Teams chat built into the Taskbar, which was designed to make it easy to collaborate and quickly start a video call or chat with someone.
