Overview
Microsoft Teams allows users to create Teams and channels for use with projects, collaboration, and efficient communication. However, periodically, projects end, Teams’ purposes change, or a Team may no longer be of use. Microsoft Teams allows users to Hide Teams that are no longer in use which cleans up the Team list or Grid so it will only show those Teams that are in active use.
Team owners can also permanently delete a team; however, it should be noted that this process is permanent and can NOT be reversed. ALL files, recordings, posts, and other content associated with the Team will be deleted.
