-
Connect a TTY device to your computer.
-
In the LyncMicrosoft Store app, swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Settings.
(If you’re using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Settings.) -
In the Phone accessibility section, under TTY, move the slider to the right to turn on TTY mode.
-
Sign out of Lync, and then sign back in.
