To prevent guest users from deleting channels from a Microsoft Teams team, you need to configure channel moderation settings in Microsoft Teams.

To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Microsoft Teams team that you want to configure.
  2. Click on the three-dot icon next to the team name, and then select "Manage team" from the dropdown menu.
  3. In the "Settings" tab, scroll down to the "Member permissions" section.
  4. Under "Member permissions," toggle the "Allow members to delete and restore channels" option to the off position.
  5. Click "Save" to apply the changes.

This setting will prevent guest users from deleting channels in the Microsoft Teams team. Note that this setting only applies to guest users; team owners and members will still be able to delete channels.

Option C (the Microsoft Teams client) is incorrect because you cannot configure channel moderation settings from the Teams client.

Option A (the Microsoft 365 admin center) and Option D (the Microsoft 365 Compliance admin center) are also incorrect because channel moderation settings are configured within Microsoft Teams, not the Microsoft 365 admin center or the Microsoft 365 Compliance admin center.

Option B (the Azure portal) is also incorrect because channel moderation settings are not configured within the Azure portal.
