With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of businesses and educational institutes have started using Microsoft Teams to manage communication, collaborate on projects, organize meetings, and more. If your organization is one of them, you may have been asked to install MS Teams on your device. Although it is completely possible to use Teams without downloading it, installing the desktop app will get you access to some additional features. Go to the official Microsoft Teams download site. You can use any web browser to download the app. Click Download for desktop in the violet-colored box. This scrolls you down the page a bit. Alternatively, you could manually scroll down to the “Download Microsoft Teams for Windows desktop” section of the page. Choose what you’re downloading MS Teams for. You could be downloading Teams on Windows 10, Windows 11, or for school or work. Choose what you’re downloading the app for and click on the appropriate button. This opens a “Save as” window. Choose a download location and click Save in the “Save As” window. MS Teams allows you to choose a download location—you can choose any folder to save the application in. After choosing a folder location, click Save. Click on the downloaded application. You can either click on the application on the bottom bar on your browser itself or open up the folder in which you saved the application and click on it from there. This starts the installation process. Although this depends on your internet speed and other factors, it normally shouldn’t take more than a few minutes. You may be prompted by a User Account Control (UAC) dialog box. If you see it, click Yes to proceed. After the installation is complete, Teams will likely open automatically. But if not, you can open it manually.
