Microsoft Teams stuck me in "on a call" status (even though I wasn't) for about three hours today. Cue the panic from me because 1) Am I supposed to be on a call? and 2) Am I on a call and don't know it and people can hear everything on my end?

Working from home problems, folks.

Microsoft Teams have been plagued with this issue for a while now and it has affected a large number of users at many locations. So, if you're one of the users facing a similar problem, fret not, as it's likely an issue from the company's end. However, you will need to wait until the issue gets resolved. This isn't the first instance where the service has experienced such an issue, MS Teams users have reported this error many times in the past.

And while Microsoft is yet to address the issue, you can hope that the company will fix the error at the earliest. MS Teams has become one of the highly used video conferencing services in recent weeks with an unprecedented spike in users. This could also be a reason for server load, and hence the issue.
