When you sign in to Microsoft Teams, the app will try to grab your email profile picture to make the experience a little more personal. However, if you never set a profile picture in your email account or want to use another image on Microsoft Teams, you can easily change it to anything you want.
This guide will teach you the steps to change the account pictures on your Microsoft Teams installation on Windows 11 and Windows 10.
