Microsoft will wipe free Teams business users’ data if they don’t upgrade to a paid tier
Now that Microsoft has launched its Teams Premium service, it’s shaking up the free offering for work — and not everyone will be happy. The company is retiring the existing Teams Free version for small business in favor of the similarly-titled Teams (free) on April 12th, and legacy data won’t carry over. Your office will have to pay for at least the Teams Essentials plan ($4 per user per month) to preserve chats, meetings, channels and other key info.
As Windows Centralexplains, the new Teams (free) tier will require a new account. Data in the old app, now rebadged as Teams Free (classic), will be deleted. Anything you haven’t saved by then will be gone, including shared files you haven’t downloaded.
We’ve asked Microsoft for comment. This won’t affect personal use, but it could prove to be a headache for small firms that previously relied on the free Teams to coordinate. They’ll either have to start paying or they’ll lose access to past discussions, not to mention deal with the headache of recreating their channel setups. This won’t necessarily lead customers to switch to alternatives like Slack, particularly if they’re heavily invested in Microsoft’s ecosystem. It might, however, prompt outfits to reevaluate their plans if they can’t justify many paid services.
Escape From Tarkov cheaters “rampant” in hardcore FPS’s latest wipe
If you’ve noticed more Escape From Tarkov cheaters than normal, you’re far from alone. The “hardcore story-driven MMO” from Battlestate Games might be one of the most influential survival games in recent years, inspiring modes such as Warzone 2 DMZ, an addition to the latest Call of Duty game. However, the community is awash with complaints in recent months, with comments calling the current wipe “the worst so far for blatant cheaters.”

Escape from Tarkov has revealed its new map ahead of today’s wipe
Escape from Tarkov is a multiplayer tactical shooter that will often have you on the edge of your seat. It’s realistic, intense, and good fun for the masochistic (and sadistic) gamers among us. There’s nothing quite like literally bleeding out as you rush to an extraction point with your loot, to then lose it all to a camper at the last minute.
We’ve seen players pretend to be dead as a means of securing more kills and loot, and in my own personal instances, I’ve witnessed friends rearing to go… only to die when they realise they’ve brought the wrong ammo, or didn’t actually load their gun.
Tarkov tests your patience, and with a new sprawling urban map on the way, that won’t be changing anytime soon. The 0.13 patch for the game is currently being installed at the time of writing, and a wipe will accompany it. The star of the show, however, is the highly-awaited Streets of Tarkov map, which will place players in a much more urban environment than ever before.
