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.

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 Betty,
since the latest MacOS update yesterday I'm not able to share my screen anymore. Teams asks me to set the appropriate setting in the preferences panel, but it is already set. Even re-granting the permission does not help. Since I often have to share my screen with my colleagues in my daily work, I would be available for advice.
Thank you and best regards

I have had the exact same problems (MacOS version 10.15.3 and Teams version 1.2.00.34155), by coincident I found that this bug for me only appear when I have Teams in fullscreen mode, see attached screen shots.
TEAMS IN FULLSCREEN
TEAMS NOT IN FULLSCREEN
I can't share my screen anymore during a teams chat with coworkers. It prompts me to update my security settings on my mac, but I have the check mark set for screen sharing for teams in the security settings as I had to set it when I updated my mac to MacOS Catalina. It worked fine ever since until end of last week. My other coworker with the Macbook has the same issues.
I tried to uncheck the security setting and to check it again, but that didn't change a thing.
Please help! This is a major inconvenience for use of Teams at the moment.
Thanks a lot!

That didn't fix it for me. it still only works in windowed mode.
Updating MacOS to 10.15.3 seems to have fixed the issue.
Screensharing now works in both windowed and full-screen mode.
Good luck.
I thought so too. But its intermittent
