A bug in Microsoft Teams desktop client version 26072.519.4556.7438 has disabled the right-click paste option for users on both Windows and macOS. Microsoft identified the issue as stemming from a code regression introduced by a recent Microsoft Edge browser update. Users began reporting the problem on April 14, 2026, with the paste option appearing greyed out in Teams chats. Affected users include both individuals and corporate environments, with reports indicating that keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + V and Cmd + V) still function as a workaround. Microsoft is currently rolling out a fix in stages but has not provided a specific timeline for full resolution. The issue has been acknowledged on Microsoft forums, where users shared their experiences and attempted solutions. As of April 16, 2026, the company is monitoring telemetry to ensure systems are recovering following the fix.
