I updated to MacOS Catalina and now I cannot share my app screens. I can share my desktop, but that is all others can see.

Found it.

System Preferences

Security & Privacy

Privacy

Screen Recording

My system had an entry (unchecked) for Microsoft teams. I think it asked me as I was launching but I blew by it. Not sure how you'd add it if it's not there. You just have to turn it on, and Teams screen sharing will work.

    Hi everyone,

    I see that there has been a lot of discussion about this but I got a new Macbook Pro last week and when I downloaded Teams (my work uses it) I can't share my screen. I have gone to Security and Privacy and clicked Teams for Accessibility but it is still not listed in the Screen Recording option. I have restarted everything, all programs, the whole machine but I still can't get Teams added to the list of Apps. I have Zoom and it appears. Any ideas?

    Thank You Leandro. Re-sizing (multiple times) shows up desktop and other apps in the sharing options.
