    An expired certificate should not cause that. I'd be very surprised if they did not have a cryptographic timestamp [1] on the driver signature. The presence of the timestamp allows…

    I have no idea why the Linux Teams application is so limited. Instead on Linux to get the missing features you can run browser based teams in Chrome or Edge. It supports window spe…
