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,

    Sorry for the late reply. According to my tests, the issue is fixed in the latest release of Teams for Mac desktop client. Please make sure your desktop client is up to date and double check whether it is fixed on your side.

    If you still encounter this kind of issues, please let me know following information in the forum:

    1. A screenshot of the error message.
    2. The version number of your Teams desktop client.

    Thanks for your cooperation.

    Regards,

    Rick

    Mine is still not working. macOS Catalina v10.15 with second update. Teams version 1.2.00.28258 updated 18/10/2019. 

    Previously I was able to share open PowerPoint slides and desktop apps, now I can only share PowerPoint by uploading.

    This is what I see...

    when I select Security & Privacy settings I see...

    As I had already had this set and it had been working.

    1. 

    2. You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.2.00.28258. It was last updated on 22/10/2019.

    Tested with the calendar 'Meet Now' but it's not working too, still unable to share screen.
