Microsoft Reannounces Teams Policy to Suppress In-Product Messages

Annoying Teams pop-up messages

Microsoft reannounced the Teams policy to suppress certain categories of in-product advertising messages but has done nothing to control Teams pop-up messages that irritate users. The volume of pop-up messages appears to have increased, or maybe it’s my frustration level that’s rising. A simple setting to turn informational pop-up messages would be appreciated.

New Policy to Disable Some In-Product Messages in Teams

In a welcome update, the Teams development group have provided a new policy setting to control the display of some in-product messages in Teams clients. The policy can only be updated with PowerShell. Some other Microsoft 365 development groups need to follow Teams and offer paying customers a way to suppress the annoying in-product ads.
