New Outlook and New teams - missing teams meeting toggle

Question

I have a fresh install on a new PC. MS 365, with office apps installed to the computer - including outlook and teams

when I create meetings in outlook, I can only add the option of skype meetings, there is no option to set up a teams meeting - when I look in the settings teams is not listed as an online meeting provider for me to select and make available or set as default (which I would very much like to)

I've tried removing the add in and restarting teams to no avail.

I can create the meeting in teams and then it sends invites out via outlook - but that means using teams calendar functionality which is even worse than that in this latest half crippled version of outlook that I seem to be saddled with.

please help me alleviate at least a little of the pain of this latest version of office...

Answer 1

Check Settings on Outlook.

gear icon at left top on screen.

Celander > Events and invitation > Events you create > turn on Microsoft teams under Choose a meeting provider.
