Windows 365 - Fix Microsoft Teams error code 2000

 

Recently I started to see Microsoft Teams showing Not Optimised banner at the top of the Teams. When clicked on it, it showed to optimize and restart. But when clicked on it, it started to show Error Code 2000. 

Checked in settings and it shows AVD slimcore media Not connected.

The error code 2000 means optimization is not enabled.

Tried to follow the steps outlined in my previous blog https://app2pack.blogspot.com/2025/02/MicrosoftTeams-Performances-Windows.html but it didn’t help. 

Followed the steps mentioned in the official MS article but it also didn’t work. Tried to force quit Teams manually and launch and still it was showing the same error and not optimized banner.

Finally Tried to restart the Windows 365 cloud pc from Windows App and this time after the restart and when clicked on Not optimized banner, it automatically optimized and prompted me to restart the Teams twice. After restarting Teams twice, the banner disappeared.

Managing Cloud PCs has become more efficient with the introduction of applying Bulk Device Actions directly on the Cloud PCs that aren't available report. 

Check for the official Windows 365 What's New reference here.

Using Bulk Device Actions:

1. Sign in to Microsoft Intune:

• Navigate to Reports > Cloud PC Overview > Cloud PCs that aren't available.

2. Apply Filters (Optional):

Narrow down the report data to focus on specific Cloud PCs. 

3. Select Cloud PCs:

• Select the cloud pc's that need to be actioned.
• You can choose up to 100,000 devices for bulk management.

4. Perform Actions:

• Navigate to Bulk device actions and select the desired action. 

5. Complete Action Steps:

• Follow the prompts to finalize the chosen action.

6. Processing Time:

• Completion time varies based on the action type and number of devices.

7. Report:
