Answer 1

Hi @Chris Dabek

Please try downloading and installing the client directly from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app

Please make sure you meet the system requirements to download Teams:

Please try turning off the firewall during installation.

If the above does not work please try disabling the anti-virus/spam program through the service:

Run: services.msc as an admin, stop all A/V services, run the installer for Teams, then once done, re-enable the A/V services.

I am well above the system requirements, i went and got the offline installer (191mb) and this is what teams installer gave me "App installation failed with error message: Deployment failed. The original error code is stored in the extended error code. (0x800706be)"
