    Who could have ever guessed that naming different software the same thing would ever come back to bite them

        And they are doing it again. CoPilot for Windows, CoPilot for Github, CoPilot for sales, CoPilot for Microsoft 365, Bing CoPilot. All different products with different properties.

          I think their first use of CoPilot was for pairing two Xbox controllers together for accessibility. Instead of making up something new, they just co-opt it from that and now it’s going to be impossible to google Copilot for Xbox Controllers issues.

          Oh well, glad I made the switch to Linux.

      I just pinned the new version to the taskbar so I don’t have to mess around with the old version diversion

      Better yet - mine keeps trying to push me to the new version, but the (new) version is blocked in my org.

      So every time it tries to open, I get a “teams (new) is blocked in your organization.” And I have to fight it to go back to the old version.

        I had this as well, it’s because the pinned version will still be pointing to the old version even after you agreed to upgrade.

        You have to unpin the old version, and pin the new version.

        Reallllly stupid upgrade from them.

    Reminds me of Skype. It seemed like I always had the wrong version installed, and I couldn’t get rid of the broken ones

    Soon they will launch their new product, Copy of New Teams Classic (work or school) (2).

    especially annoying when your school keeps switching between the two.
    I joined a meeting on New Teams once, but by the end of it i got a popup saying that access to new teams has been blocked and you need to switch to classic teams.
    the next day, we were forced to migrate to new teams again.
    a week ago, access to new teams got blocked again, and i had to redownload teams (classic)

    Microsoft should save everyone some headache and delete Teams. These stupid fucks keep giving me an alert saying to export all my saved messages to a csv file because this cunt of a company decided to not carry forward that feature in newer apps.
