HELP, It deleted microsoft teams and I can't reinstall it

[SN682]

I need teams for school. I have no idea why it's considered bloatware.

I need to reinstall it but an error flag raise up every time

See attached setup log please, I do not have the knowledge to fix this and I cannot format my computer mid-session, I would be savagely f*cked.

Okay so I could see it broken in the add or remove programs in win 11, uninstalled it and reinstalled it and that worked UNTIL I logged out and back in then it breaks it again.

This is acting like a virus and flags Microsoft teams for deletion and just throws it to trash.

I need to get rid of this virus

Heya, this is a really strange issue. I can't replicate this myself, but I have found (admitedly old) posts of people that seem to have similar issues.

It's likely old files of the teams installer that are somehow conflicting or broken. Try manually navigating to %localappdata% and remove the SquirrelTemp folder completely. This is the directory the teams installer uses. In my case it just contains a bunch of logs though.
