Microsoft Teams has introduced a change to the way files are organized within channels. Previously, the "Files" tab in a channel was where you would find documents stored in the document library. Now, this tab has been renamed to "Shared," and it includes not only those documents but also all files and links that have been shared in the channel conversations.
Think of it like a filing cabinet in an office. Before, you had one drawer labeled "Files" where you stored all the official documents. Now, the drawer is labeled "Shared," and it contains not only those official documents but also all the notes, memos, and links that colleagues have passed around during meetings or discussions. This change makes it easier to find everything related to the channel in one convenient spot, much like having all your office materials organized in a single drawer rather than scattered across different places.
This update is designed to streamline the process of finding content, ensuring that everything shared within a channel is easily accessible without having to dig through various conversations or separate tabs. Whether you're using a desktop or a Mac, this new feature is available worldwide, making collaboration more efficient for everyone involved.
