Fix 1: Clear Microsoft Teams Cache
A corrupt cache data is a common underlying culprit behind Microsoft Teams crashing on Windows. Clearing it manually should resolve the issue.
Tip: If you’re using Microsoft Teams on Firefox, ensure clearing its cache.
Step 1: Press the Windows + R keys simultaneously to open the Run dialog, type %appdata%MicrosoftTeams, and hit enter.
Step 2: Select all the cache data displayed in the file explorer window and right-click to delete them.
Fix 2: Run the Windows App Store Troubleshooter
Besides clearing cache, Microsoft offers its in-built troubleshooter to fix issues with Windows Store apps. Follow these steps to troubleshoot the Microsoft Teams crash issue with it:
Step 1: Open the Windows Settings app (press the Windows + I keys simultaneously), click System in the left sidebar, and press Troubleshoot.
Step 2: Click Other troubleshooters, scroll down to find Windows Store Apps, and click Run next to it. Wait a few seconds to let the troubleshooter resolve issues with the Teams app.
Fix 3: Repair or Reset Microsoft Teams
If the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter didn’t help, repairing or resetting the Microsoft Teams app should fix its crashing issue.
Step 1: Open Windows Settings, click Apps in the left sidebar, and press Installed apps.
Step 2: Locate Microsoft Teams and click the three vertical dot menu next to it for Advanced options.
Step 3: Scroll down and click Repair. Alternatively, click Reset if repairing the app didn’t fix its random crashing issue on Windows 11.
Fix 4: Reduce Refresh Rate on Laptop or Monitor
Reducing the screen refresh rate is another effective technique to resolve abrupt crash issues in the Microsoft Teams app.
Note: You can only decrease the refresh rate on monitors and laptops that offer high refresh rates.
Step 1: Right-click on your desktop, open Display Settings, and click Advanced Display at the bottom.
Step 2: Reduce the current refresh rate from the Choose a refresh rate option. You can also do it from your dedicated GPU app settings.
Fix 5: Disable GPU Hardware Acceleration in Teams
By default, the Teams app uses GPU hardware acceleration to offer better performance, but it may cause crashes and screen freezing on certain Windows systems. Disabling it should fix the issue quickly.
Note: This setting is only available on Microsoft Teams installed from the Windows App Store.
Step 1: Open Microsoft Teams, click the three horizontal dot menu at the top-right, and press Settings.
Step 2: Click General in the left sidebar and check Disable GPU hardware acceleration. Further, close and restart the Teams app.
Fix 6: Disable Teams Animations and App Add-ons
Lastly, disabling animation in the Teams app and turning off app add-ons for teams will eliminate random crash issues.
Step 1: Open Microsoft Teams app settings from the three horizontal dots menu at the top-right.
Step 2: Click General, and scroll down to the bottom to enable Turn off animations.
Further, disable adding apps for Teams under Manage Team > Settings > Member permissions > uncheck Allow members to add or remove apps.
