Windows 11 Responds To EU Concerns, To Allow Removal Of Microsoft Teams Chat Completely

Microsoft may let you uninstall “Chat”, a Microsoft Teams for consumer feature, and remove it from Windows Settings. This move could be to avoid the threat of antitrust investigation by European Union regulators. The unannounced change is hidden in Windows 11 preview builds released in May, and it could begin rolling out to production soon.

While it’s already possible to unpin Chat from the taskbar, Microsoft will soon let you remove the feature entirely, including from the settings.

Windows 11 has a Chat app, a new way to chat with friends and family via Microsoft Teams platforms. Chat was announced with much hype at Windows 11’s October 2021 event. This feature is integrated into Windows 11 Shell/taskbar and offers a user-friendly experience, allowing anyone to connect with friends and family outside of work for free.
