With the rollout of Windows 11, Microsoft is putting Teams front and center, going so far as to configure to Microsoft Teams to automatically start every time you boot up Windows 11. Whether you don't use Microsoft Teams, don't like the communication software, or aren't a fan of the added strain it puts on your computer, removing Microsoft Teams from the list of Windows 11 startup applications can be done relatively easily.
Now let's walk through the steps to stop Microsoft Teams from opening on startup in Windows 11.
Step 1. Navigate to your Windows 11 home screen, and then press the "Windows" and "I" keys at the same time to open the Settings app.
Step 2. Click "Apps" in the menu on the left side of the screen. The Apps menu is shown on the right side of the screen.
Step 3. Click "Startup" in the list of options. The list of startup apps is displayed, showing the list of apps you have the option to load when your Windows 11 computer starts.
Step 4. Scroll down this list until you see Microsoft Teams, and then click the toggle next to Microsoft Teams to turn it off. Your changes will be saved, and going forward Microsoft Teams will no longer start automatically when you boot up your Windows 11 computer.
