Hi MS,

In our environment, the Teams update management has been configured to utilize the 'New Teams Client'. Users can toggle between classic to New Teams.

We have an internal tool for troubleshooting to extract information regarding the Teams client version and the latest update from the 'Teams.exe file's properties: Path : %localappdata%\Microsoft\Teams\Current\Teams.exe

The question we are seeking for the scenarios outlined below is, where is the 'Teams.exe' file stored?"

  1. When we toggled from the Teams Classic version to the New Teams client

Q.1 -Where is the "New Teams Client 2.0 "Teams.exe" file saved?
For Teams Classic it's saved under the following:

  %localappdata%\Microsoft\Teams\Current\Teams.exe  - This file is responsible for launching the MS              Teams App.

2 Last week, MS released a "New Teams client 2.0 client.
Q 2 -Upon installing the New Teams client 2.0 on a new laptop using the following link, we are unable to see "teams.exe" file in any location. we need to determine the location where the Teams.exe file is stored.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app
https://windowsreport.com/microsoft-teams-2-0-download/

Thanks in Advance!!

Regards,
Sam

    For those using the SCCM who want to understand whether the Teams 2.0 is installed at all on their clients and get the output of the folder presence, device name and user name of the user, you can use the following CMPivot query:

    Device
| join kind=leftouter (File('C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\*') | where FileName contains('MSTeams_')) | project Device, FolderFound=iif( isnull(FileName), 'No', 'Yes') | 
join user | where UserName !contains'SERVICE' and UserName !contains 'SYSTEM'
| project Device,FolderFound,UserName
