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 all,

    have the same problem.

    Adding the "Screen Recording" entry in security setting using "scheduling" worked out, but still not possible to share a screen.

    Hi All

    Went home last night thinnking it was working, but after logging ni the morning I get the security & privacy settings pop up again :(

    Teams is in my Privacy tab in Mac system settings, but I have no way to share screen

    Is anyone else a member of 2 teams groups? Wondering if this is a contributing factor
