Introduction
To start you will need to fully close your Teams Desktop Client and the Outlook Desktop Client (if you are using it)
Quit Teams Desktop Client
Right click the Teams icon

or

Clearing the Cache
Open the "File Explorer" (Yellow Folder icon)
Browse to "%AppData%\Microsoft"
Locate the Teams Folder in the location and delete the whole folder (this will also remove the Teams Plugin for Outlook which is why we need to close the Outlook Desktop Client to avoid any unnecessary messages)
Relaunch Teams, which will recreate the Teams folder we have just removed, with the standard base files.
You can then relaunch Outlook, which will re-install the Teams Plug-in, which allows you to create Microsoft Teams Meetings as part of an Appointments in your calendar.
