Solutions
1.Talk to IT
-
This message is almost always an admin configuration.
-
Ask IT to check 'Microsoft Teams Services' as a service principal in the Entra admin center.
-
If missing, the admin must re-create the service principal.
2.Sign in to the correct tenant
-
If you are a member of multiple tenants, make sure you sign into the right one.
-
Click 'Accounts and tenants' bottom-left and select the correct tenant.
3.Re-connect the account
-
Quit Teams and remove the account under Windows Settings, 'Access work or school'.
-
Reboot and add the account again.
AADSTS500011 cannot be solved with cache resets or other end-user tricks. This is a question for identity administration.
