How to delete cache of Microsoft Teams on macOS?

I want to delete the cache of the Microsoft Teams on my Macbook Air.

Please let me know how to do it.

Solution 1:

There are multiple locations with Teams cache files:

• as noted by @JMY1000, the regular cache folder ~/Library/Caches
• see @grg's answer here or this answer by a Microsoft employee: ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams

If you remove just those, you don't need to login again, so the following Terminal commands would work:

rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.teams
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/Application\ Cache/Cache
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/blob_storage
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/Cache
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/databases
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/GPUCache
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/IndexedDB
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/Local\ Storage
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Teams/tmp

For those who prefer a solution outside Terminal:

• open Finder
• open the 'Go' menu, choose 'Go to Folder...'
  • (or alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Cmd+G)
• enter ~/Library/Caches and press Enter
• delete the com.microsoft.teams folder

• Similarly, go to the ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams folder and delete these folders:

Application Cache/Cache
blob_storage
Cache
databases
GPUCache
IndexedDB
Local Storage
tmp 

Solution 2:

Teams stores caches in the following locations.

• ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams
• ~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.teams

Remove these folders using Finder to empty the cache.

1. Quit Teams.
2. In Finder, choose Go → Go to Folder and paste the above paths.

You will have to log in again after deleting these folders.
