# MS Teams - Resume An Old Conversation

**Last updated:** Dec 21, 2018, 12:16 PM by Jessica C-Smith

## Desktop:

In Teams, you can find and resume a previous conversation. No matter how many times you've spoken to that person, it's all in one place.

### Find an old message

All your old messages are saved, and you can search for them (and people, chats, and files) using the command box at the top of your screen. Click the conversation you want to resume.

To search for an attachment, look in the **Files** tab above your search results. You can click **Filter** ![Filter button](https://cdn.us.document360.io/4662144b-ab1f-4796-8b7b-e9f9c609894f/Images/Documentation/9f9fae46-7234-4242-9845-be0f602a6c43.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-04T20%3A23%3A30Z&se=2026-11-04T21%3A23%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=EGZoK2niYOgiwXMcx3Huqv5k%2BhIspUJE%2BpJsCKPDuig%3D) to narrow your results.
