Teams remembers the last chosen background per user. A policy can force this but works tenant-wide.
Try this first
- 1Pick blur once via meeting pre-join settings
- 2Teams will remember this for next meetings
- 3Ask IT for a meeting policy that defaults to blur if needed
- 4Test by signing out and back in
When to bring us in
