Desktop client

Tip

Watch the following session to learn about the benefits of the Windows Desktop Client, how to plan for it, and how to deploy it: Teams Windows Desktop Client

The Microsoft Teams desktop client is a standalone application and is also available in Office 365 ProPlus. Teams is available for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows (8.1 or later) and Windows Server (2012 R2 or later), as well as for macOS (10.10 or later) and Linux (in .deb and .rpm formats). On Windows, Teams requires .NET Framework 4.5 or later; the Teams installer will offer to install it for you if you don't have it. On Linux, package managers such as apt and yum will try to install any requirements for you. However, if they don't then you will need to install any reported requirements before installing Teams on Linux.

The desktop clients provide real-time communications support (audio, video, and content sharing) for team meetings, group calling, and private one-on-one calls.

Office 365 for home subscription. If you have an Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal subscription, you already have the most current version of Office at no additional cost and should already receive the latest features to your Office apps.

Desktop clients can be downloaded and installed by end users directly from https://teams.microsoft.com/downloads if they have the appropriate local permissions (admin rights are not required to install the Teams client on a PC but are required on a Mac).

IT admins can choose their preferred method to distribute the installation files to computers in their organization. Some examples include Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (Windows) or Jamf Pro (macOS). To get the MSI package for Windows distribution, see Install Microsoft Teams using MSI.

Note

Distribution of the client via these mechanisms is only for the initial installation of Microsoft Team clients and not for future updates.

Windows

The Microsoft Teams installation for Windows provides downloadable installers in 32-bit and 64-bit architecture.

Note

The architecture (32-bit vs. 64-bit) of Microsoft Teams is agnostic to the architecture of Windows and Office that is installed.

The Windows client is deployed to the AppData folder located in the user’s profile. Deploying to the user’s local profile allows the client to be installed without requiring elevated rights. The Windows client leverages the following locations:

  • %LocalAppData%MicrosoftTeams

  • %LocalAppData%MicrosoftTeamsMeetingAddin

  • %AppData%MicrosoftTeams

  • %LocalAppData%SquirrelTemp

When users initiate a call using the Microsoft Teams client for the first time, they might notice a warning with the Windows firewall settings that asks for users to allow communication. Users might be instructed to ignore this message because the call will work, even when the warning is dismissed.

Note

We recommend turning on two-factor authentication and using an app password.To turn on two-factor authentication and get an app password, use the following steps.Go to from your browser, then select the Google apps icon in the upper right corner of the screen.Select My Account. Under Sign-in & security, select Signing in to Google.Under Password & sign-in method, if 2-Step Verification is OFF, click the next to OFF. Configure microsoft outlook for mac mail cannot be received at this time. Otherwise, skip to step 4.On the first screen, click CONTINUE.If prompted, enter your Gmail password and then click NEXT.Enter your phone number and select whether you want to receive your verification codes by text message or a phone call.

Windows Firewall configuration will be altered even when the prompt is dismissed by selecting “Cancel”. Two inbound rules for teams.exe will be created with Block action for both TCP and UDP protocols.

Mac

Mac users can install Teams by using a PKG installation file for macOS computers. Administrative access is required to install the Mac client. The macOS client is installed to the /Applications folder.

Install Teams by using the PKG file

  1. From the Teams download page, under Mac, click Download.
  2. Double click the PKG file.
  3. Follow the installation wizard to complete the installation.
  4. Teams will be installed to /Applications folder. It is a machine-wide installation.

Note

During the installation, the PKG will prompt for admin credentials. The user needs to enter the admin credentials, regardless of whether or not the user is an admin.

If a user currently has a DMG installation of Teams and wants to replace it with the PKG installation, the user should:

  1. Exit the Teams app.
  2. Uninstall the Teams app.
  3. Install the PKG file.

IT admins can use managed deployment of Teams to distribute the installation files to all Macs in their organization, such as Jamf Pro.

Note

If you experience issues installing the PKG, let us know. In the Feedback section at the end of this article, click Product feedback.

Linux

Users will be able to install native Linux packages in .deb and .rpm formats.Installing the DEB or RPM package will automatically install the package repository

  • DEB https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams stable main
  • RPM https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/ms-teams

The signing key to enable auto-updating using the system's package manager is installed automatically. However, it can also be found at: (https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc). Microsoft Teams ships monthly and if the repository was installed correctly, then your system package manager should handle auto-updating in the same way as other packages on the system.

Note

If you find a bug, submit it using Report a Problem from within the client. For known issues, see Known Issues.For Teams for Linux support you can use the Linux forum support channel on Microsoft Q&A. Be sure to use the teams-linux tag when posting questions.

Web client

The web client (https://teams.microsoft.com) is a full, functional client that can be used from a variety of browsers. The web client supports Calling and Meetings by using webRTC, so there is no plug-in or download required to run Teams in a web browser. The browser must be configured to allow third-party cookies.

Teams fully supports the following Internet browsers, with noted exceptions for calling and meetings.

BrowserCalling - audio, video, and sharingMeetings - audio, video, and sharing12
Internet Explorer 11Not supportedMeetings are supported only if the meeting includes PSTN coordinates. To attend a meeting on IE11 without PSTN coordinates, users must download the Teams desktop client.
Video: Not supported
Sharing: Incoming sharing only (no outgoing)
Microsoft Edge, RS2 or laterFully supported, except no outgoing sharingFully supported, except no outgoing sharing

Sharing: Incoming sharing only (no outgoing)
Safari is enabled on versions higher than 11.1 in preview. While in preview, there are known issues with Safari's Intelligent Tracking Prevention.

1 To give and take control of shared content during sharing, both parties must be using the Teams desktop client. Control isn't supported when either party is running Teams in a browser. This is due to a technical limitation that we're planning to fix. To learn more, read Allow a participant to give or request control.

2 Blur my background isn't available when you run Teams in a browser. This feature is only available in the Teams desktop client.

Note

Microsoft planner

As long as an operating system can run the supported browser, Teams is supported. For example, running Firefox on the Linux operating system is an option for using Teams.

The web client performs browser version detection upon connecting to https://teams.microsoft.com. If an unsupported browser version is detected, it will block access to the web interface and recommend that the user download the desktop client or mobile app.

Mobile clients

The Microsoft Teams mobile apps are available for Android and iOS, and are geared for on-the-go users participating in chat-based conversations and allow peer-to-peer audio calls. For mobile apps, go to the relevant mobile stores Google Play and the Apple App Store. The Windows Phone App was retired July 20, 2018 and may no longer work.

In China, here's how to get Teams for Android.

Supported mobile platforms for Microsoft Teams mobile apps are the following:

  • Android: Support is limited to the last four major versions of Android. When a new major version of Android is released, the new version and the previous three versions are officially supported.

  • iOS: Support is limited to the two most recent major versions of iOS. When a new major version of iOS is released, the new version of iOS and the previous version are officially supported.

Note

The mobile version must be available to the public in order for Teams to work as expected.

Mobile apps are distributed and updated through the respective mobile platform’s app store only. Distribution of the mobile apps via MDM or side-loading is not supported by Microsoft. Once the mobile app has been installed on a supported mobile platform, the Teams Mobile App itself will be supported provided the version is within three months of the current release.

Decision PointAre there any restrictions preventing users from installing the appropriate Microsoft Teams client on their devices?
Next StepsIf your organization restricts software installation, make sure that process is compatible with Microsoft Teams. Note: Admin rights are not required for PC client installation but are required for installation on a Mac.

Client update management

Clients are currently updated automatically by the Microsoft Teams service with no IT administrator intervention required. If an update is available, the client will automatically download the update and when the app has idled for a period of time, the update process will begin.

Client-side configurations

Currently, there are no supported options available to configure the client either through the tenant admin, PowerShell, Group Policy Objects or the registry.

Notification settings

There are currently no options available for IT administrators to configure client-side notification settings. All notification options are set by the user. The figure below outlines the default client settings.

Sample PowerShell Script

This sample script, which needs to run on client computers in the context of an elevated administrator account, will create a new inbound firewall rule for each user folder found in c:users. When Teams finds this rule, it will prevent the Teams application from prompting users to create firewall rules when the users make their first call from Teams.

Microsoft Teams Planner

团队合作和 Office 365Teamwork and Office 365

每个团队各不相同,因此不存在适用于所有团队的通用协作方法。Every team is different; there's no one-size-fits-all approach to collaboration.Office 365 旨在满足每个团队的独特需求,从而使大家能够通过专用的集成应用进行交流、协作以及取得更大的成就。Office 365 is designed to meet the unique needs of every team, empowering people to communicate, collaborate, and achieve more with purpose-built, integrated applications.

在决定要使用的 Office 365 应用和服务时,应考虑贵组织的工作内容以及你的团队需要采用的对话类型。When deciding which Office 365 apps and services to use, think about the work your organization does and the types of conversations your teams need to have.

  • 作为团队合作的中心,组织内外的人员可在 Teams 中主动联系和协作来完成工作。Teams, as the hub for teamwork, is where people - including people outside your organization - can actively connect and collaborate in real time to get things done.无论是共同创作文档、举行会议还是在其他应用和服务中合作,都可以在开展工作的地方进行对话。Have a conversation right where the work is happening, whether coauthoring a document, having a meeting, or working together in other apps and services.在 Teams 中,可以进行非正式聊天、快速对项目进行重复操作、处理团队文件以及对共享的可交付结果进行协作。Teams is the place to have informal chats, iterate quickly on a project, work with team files, and collaborate on shared deliverables.

  • Outlook 用于以熟悉的电子邮件环境和更加正式的结构化方式或在需要进行有目标的直接通信时进行协作。Outlook for collaborating in the familiar environment of email and in a more formal, structured manner or when targeted and direct communication is required.

  • SharePoint 用于网站和门户、智能内容服务、业务流程自动化和企业搜索。SharePoint for sites, portals, intelligent content services, business process automation, and enterprise search.SharePoint 将内容保留在团队合作的中心位置,从而使所有类型的内容可在团队之间轻松共享和访问。SharePoint keeps content at the center of teamwork, making all types of content easily shareable and accessible across teams.通过与 Outlook、Yammer 和 Teams 紧密集成,可在对话体验中实现无缝内容协作。Tight integration with Outlook, Yammer, and Teams enables seamless content collaboration across conversation experiences.

  • OneDrive for Business 用于存储文件以及与用户邀请的人员共享这些文件。OneDrive for Business for storing files and sharing them with people that a user invites.用户保存到 OneDrive for Business 的内容在本人与其他人共享之前一直是私人的,因此 OneDrive for Business 非常适合存储不打算共享或未准备好共享的个人文档和草稿文档。Content that a user saves to OneDrive for Business is private until the user shares it with others, making it the best option for storing personal and draft documents that are not intended to be shared or not ready to be shared.

  • Yammer 用于整个组织中的人员进行联系。Yammer to connect people across the organization.可推动公司范围的计划、共享最佳做法以及就共同的兴趣、领域或做法主题进行交流。Drive company-wide initiatives, share best practices, and build communities around common topics of interest or areas of practice.可汇聚众人的想法来提倡整个公司的人员进行开放式讨论。Crowdsource ideas to foster open discussions with people across the company.

  • Office 应用是大家都知道并经常使用的所有熟悉的工具,包括 Word、Excel、PowerPoint 和 OneNote。Office apps are all the familiar tools that people know and use regularly, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote.
