Every time the user logs in to their Windows 10 device, they are being presented with an advertisement for Microsoft Teams, which they have not voluntarily signed up for and do not know its purpose.
The user is frustrated because they cannot easily remove the ad and wants to know what installed it.

One solution to prevent the Microsoft Teams ad from popping up every time the user logs in to Windows 10 is to disable it from the Startup tab in Task Manager.
Another solution to stop the Microsoft Teams ad from appearing is to uninstall both “Microsoft Teams” and “Teams Machine-Wide Installer” software.
