Apart from improving access and therefore hopefully increasing adoption, Microsoft would hope this would give Teams a further boost as it battles rival video conferencing and messaging platforms in these times when virtual catchups and digital communication is the need of the hour. Microsoft Teams has workplace as well as personal accounts options, which means your work chats and catching up with friends and family can now be easier.

Microsoft Teams is a versatile communication platform for text messages as well as voice and video calls.īy default, the Microsoft Teams icon will be placed in the new center aligned taskbar, and assuming you’ll be setting up and signing up Windows 11 with your Microsoft account, you’ll immediately have access to your contacts and chats on Teams.

Microsoft has unveiled the much-awaited Windows 11 operating system which is set to roll out for consumers later this year.
