How do I fix the Microsoft Teams Security Zone setting error?

1. If you use Microsoft Edge

This error you will receive if an actual Security Setting in Edge Browser is missing and can be solved by adding the https://admin.teams.microsoft.com and the https://login.microsoftonline.com page to the trusted site.

Unfortunately, the feature of adding trusted websites on Microsoft Edge is not yet available yet, so your only option is to import all of your settings from Internet Explorer.

Note:If you useMozilla FirefoxorGoogle Chromeyou can fix this issue by logging into the website through a private (incognito) window. No explanation as to why this works currently exists, and admittedly this is more of a workaround, but it will at least fix this issue.
