This installer is used by Microsoft Office to install Teams or may be used by organizations installing Teams through a deployment package. The Teams Machine-Wide Installer does not normally get updated, and per-user instances of Teams installed into a user's profile will normally not be affected by changes to the Teams-Machine-Wide Installer.

It must be run with Administrative privileges. The script is signed, so the user executing the script on each machine will require an execution policy of at least RemoteSigned. When installing the Teams Machine-Wide Installer originally, it could have been installed in 3 main ways, relative to the current user:.

For scenario 3 the current user is not "aware" that the MSI has been installed, and so it is not able to do an in-place upgrade. In this case the script will, by default, exit with an error. If you pass the -AllowInstallOvertopExisting switch into the script, it will permit the script to instead perform an installation of the MSI for the current user.

This will overwrite the existing files, allowing them to be updated to the correct version. If this occurs, however, two different users will have separate installation entries created.

If either user uninstalls the Teams Machine-Wide Installer, the files will be removed, and it will be shown as uninstalled for the user performing the uninstall, but the second user will still show an installation entry present, even though the files have been removed.

By default, the script will populate the AllowMsiOverride key only if it does not already exist. Therefore, if your organization wants to push a value of 0 to some users, this value will remain even if the script is ran.

If you deploy an older version of the MSI file, the client will auto-update except in VDI environments when possible for the user.

If a very old version gets deployed, the MSI will trigger an app update before the user is able to use Teams. We don't recommended that you change the default install locations as this could break the update flow. Having too old a version will eventually block users from accessing the service. Make sure the computers you install Teams on meeting the requirements listed in Hardware requirements for Microsoft Teams.

If a user uninstalls Teams from their user profile, the MSI installer will track that the user has uninstalled the Teams app and no longer install Teams for that user profile. To redeploy Teams for this user on a particular computer where it was uninstalled, do the following:.

The next steps contain information about how to modify the registry. Make sure that you back up the registry before you modify it and that you know how to restore the registry if a problem occurs.

The default behavior of the MSI is to install the Teams app as soon as a user signs in and then automatically start Teams. If you don't want Teams to start automatically for users after it's installed, you can use Group Policy to set a policy setting or disable auto launch for the MSI installer.

Enable the Prevent Microsoft Teams from starting automatically after installation Group Policy setting. This is the recommended method because you can turn off or turn on the policy setting according to your organization's needs. When you enable this policy setting before Teams is installed, Teams doesn't start automatically when users log in to Windows.

After a user signs in to Teams for the first time, Teams starts automatically the next time the user logs in. To learn more, see Use Group Policy to prevent Teams from starting automatically after installation. If you've already deployed Teams and want to set this policy to disable Teams autostart, first set the Group Policy setting to the value you want, and then run the Teams autostart reset script on a per-user basis.

Teams won't start until the user manually starts Teams. After the user manually starts Teams, Teams automatically starts whenever the user logs in.

All users can then uninstall Teams if they have admin credentials on the computer. If you run the MSI manually, be sure to run it with elevated permissions. Even if you run it as an administrator, without running it with elevated permissions, the installer won't be able to configure the option to disable auto start. Skip to main content.
