Hi guys

Ive googled this and seem to get not the "right" answer.

My work has started using screens for remote access and its terrific. But everytime i share my screen, it has serious constant flicker which not only i see but so does the person on the other end.

Whats the cause

Regards

Adam

OK.. I think I may have found the solution. When sharing your screen many tiles show up for you to share. Some of these tiles are under 2 categories DESKTOP and WINDOW. Make your selection for the screen you want to share under DESKTOP NOT WINDOW. This selection made my screen not flicker anymore.

    Albert, Great workaround, but #MICROSOFT, this needs a proper fix so that isolated apps can be shared. We don't want personal messages popping up during a presentation etc.

    Up to date and still flickering when sharing only applications. The worst is a simple notepad with some code. Luckily I'm not an epileptic... 

    Can anyone confirm this observation, I mean after updating Windows to built 2004?
