Install or update the Teams desktop app on VDIYou can deploy the Teams desktop app for VDI using a per-machine installation or per-user installation using the MSI package. Deciding on which approach to use depends on whether you use a persistent or nonpersistent setup and the associated functionality needs of your organization.For a dedicated persistent setup, either approach would work. However, for a non-persistent setup, Teams requires a per-machine installation in order to work efficiently. See the Non-persistent setup section.With per-machine installation, automatic updates are disabled. This means that to update the Teams app, you must uninstall the current version to update to a newer version. With per-user installation, automatic updates are enabled. For most VDI deployments, we recommend you deploy Teams using per-machine installation.To update to the latest Teams version, start with the uninstall procedure followed by latest Teams version deployment.
