Don’t install Microsoft Teams with new installations or updates of Office
This policy setting allows you to control whether Microsoft Teams is installed with a new installation of Office or when an existing installation of Office is updated.

If you enable this policy setting, Teams won’t be installed with a new installation or an update of Office. If you disable or don’t configure this policy setting, Teams will be installed as part of a new installation or an update of Office, unless you have used some other method, such as the Office Deployment Tool, to exclude the installation of Teams.
