If you are an admin, you might want to know you can control this feature on a global or per policy basis by the guidelines in the following article at docs.
Through powershell, you can do the following (Teams meetings policies are managed with the SkypeOnlinePowershellModule):
- If you want to disable the option of live captions for Teams meeting attendees, run this command in PowerShell:
Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity "global" -LiveCaptionsEnabledType "Disabled"
- If you want to re-enable the option of live captions for Teams meeting attendees, run this command in PowerShell:
Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity "global" -LiveCaptionsEnabledType "EnabledUserOverride"
- Where PolicyName is any custom policy you may have created. Global would refer to tenant-wide global policy.
