    So, today morning I had an online exam through "MS Teams". I had to upload the last part/section of the exam as a PDF in the assignment. when I tried that it kept getting stuck either at 70% or 95%. I used both desktop app, web app and even my phone. the last thing the teacher present said was "write it again next semster"..... But when he ended the meeting and tried again, it worked.

    And the same issue came when I was just attending my afternoon exam. Then the teacher said to disable the video and try it again, then voilà it worked.

    So, Is this issue of the file getting stuck(even though it is 1 or 2MB) is caused by my video, or now I'm just lucky?

    {Also I blocked every other person who was using my homes wifi during the first exam when I encountered the problem, and as I said it's not fixed}


    Thankx.

    I think it's related to your internet services upload speed.

    Bandwidth and lack of bandwidth allocation. Videos take up a lot of it.

    Maybe it's because of your upload speed.
    Sometimes I can download any file even videos but uploading a 200kb file takes forever.

    Yeah it’s probably not the video function or a software problem but the lack of bandwidth of your internet.. otherwise Microsoft would’ve found such a blatant bug during the beta testing phase

    Could be related to RAM as well, in addition to low internet bandwidth. Video call does take lot of download and upload. At the same time, all of it goes through the ram I think.
