remove conversation tab
I would like the option to remove or hide the conversations tab. Teams is a great way to post and link to team related spreadsheets or slideshows and doesn't require a chat function. Keeping one sometimes means there are chat posts that are missed because they are not expected.

Removing the Conversation Tab is being reviewed by the feature team.
For deleting chat messages, please following progress here: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103/suggestions/33535006.
Thanks.

There is option to delete single sent message in teams app but Deleting a whole conversation option is not available. It will be great if there is also a option for Deleting a whole conversation.

"Deleting" single messages causes chat hangups, clearly visible in the support forums. So Microsoft do something about managing chats properly!

This is a basic feature and no progress whatsoever!

This would be a HUGE benefit to the Microsoft community considering the current pandemic where schools and companies are having to use Teams as a resource for several tasks.
Presently, my Chat window shows several conversations going back to April - some of which I will never resume. As someone that dislikes clutter, I would love to delete the ones that are not current, but there's only an option to Hide...which I have to do one by one!
It would be really nice if there was a little trash can in the drop down right below Hide for single messages, and something similar to our cell phone message apps, where you can select all/multiple conversations, then click the Delete button.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! :-)

Please consider enabling the option to delete a whole conversation not just a message.

If you add this feature, please allow the ability to place security controls on it. i.e. lower level staffers can either not delete, or if they do delete, admin is alerted or the data is available to be retrieved for legal purposes.
For instance say an employee decides to delete their Teams history to make it look like they never had a conversation that they regret having later on.
Power users might want to delete chats just so that they have less in their history because they don't like to have more than a few days of history.

Please add feature to delete entire chat conversations, not just hide them. This would be very helpful.

Not sure why this wouldn't be an available feature....delete all or multi-select deletion is a feature that you should come to expect since around the late 90s.

Deleting the entire chat needs to be available. If I have to send out individual messages to 100 employees I’ll have the whole chat area full for one message. Update it!

How can there not be a way to delete a conversation. This is ridiculous!!!!! My 10 year old would have had enough sense to add a delete conversation button.

Please add the ability to delete entire conversations. This is a basic function that must be present to support closing of projects, employment changes, and simple daily activities.
