We experienced same issues. I have tried to do M365 offline package installed via post setup through install.cmd. However, we just learnt that the MS Teams doesn't installed along. After gone through the research, the offline M365 package installed won't including the MS Teams. Hence, we need to install separately.

The MS Teams downloaded file (MSIX) will be install new MS Teams application. Instead, we want to have MS Teams Classic version for time being. I did download the teams.exe file but we don't know how to install it via command.

I tried to check for silent installed command from that .exe file, but unlucky didn't find any.

Any advise?

Thanks,
Phearin
 
Initially... I was aiming for classic teams... But they are removing classic soon so its better to adapt with new teams...IMO
Imperious3rill I am aware of this new adaptation of MS Teams will be automatically change until March 2024. Also, the new features hasn't released or enabled by tenant, so we can't use it for installation to all client. Hence, we need that class teams for time being.

1. Download MS Teams Classic installer.
2. Add installer file to Post-Setup.
CommandParameters
TeamsSetup_c_w_.exe-s

If you prefer the MSI version, read the instructions here:
Bulk install classic Teams using Windows Installer (MSI)

Code:
msiexec /i Teams_windows_x64.msi ALLUSERS=1
 
:rolleyes:

the /s parameter goes on the same line as the executable (installer). nothing else needed after. so delete the command underneath it and you should be good
 
Add the File, Parameters = "-s". NTLite has to copy your installer file into its private staging folder.
Copying some random string into the Command column does nothing.
 
Turns out TeamsSetup_c_w_.exe is the web (not offline) installer.
You don't want that one because it downloads in the background, and doesn't block SetupComplete from exiting early.

Instead download the Classic MSI file. Load with "/qn ALLUSERS=1"

Teams will auto-start (I believe) the next time you logon. Read the MS instructions linked in post #8.

Simply add MSIX to the Updates page and done.

I already replied this over the email a few days back, potentially the same person.

Get the Teams installer here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app

If you get the left one, the Exe, then the silent switch is
-s
but it will open it after, which is not good for Machine tasks, put it in User box of Post-setup.

Or get the right-side for Work or School, that is an MSIX package, you can just put that in the Updates page and it will integrate.

Hi ! Thank you for your response!

TLDR --> if anyone finds this later thread and needs to integrate Teams, do this
(it's for the proper classic version, the one that works with work/school accounts too, not just with home accounts. I hate the built-in Teams in Windows 11, that one doesn't get the job done. THIS one does, so I'm integrating it. They fit alongside well.)

STEP 1.
Download from garlin 's link, or from here -- direct link here to MSI version (x64 of course )
https://teams.microsoft.com/downloa...&arch=x64&managedInstaller=true&download=true

STEP 2.
Use this code in NTLITE/Post-install to integrate (and to prevent super-annoying auto-start. The user can still manually enable auto-start later if desired but this spam should be stopped -- classic Teams is auto-starting even if you aren't even logged in yet!) With this integration script, it will not do that.
Code:
msiexec /i Teams_windows_x64.msi OPTIONS="noAutoStart=true" ALLUSERS=1
 
NTLite has special knowledge of several file extensions, including .msi files.

When you load a MSI file, it automatically creates the "msiexec /i" command for you. All you need is add optional MSI install flags in the Parameters field. See the screenshot in post #14.
