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.

    Thank you Matt, 

    but this "solution" has already been posted several times before. 

    Ok, it works as described. But for many users it's not practicable, because they have a large monitor with some other necessary windows in use, which they don't want to show completely to the audience.

    Hi,

    I had also several times this problem that parts of my display starts to flicker. The solution to share my whole screen is nice but most of my customers are not able to view a 3840x1080 display and can read the text. Sorry shareing a window or specific regions of my display is a must have.

    Kind regards

    Marco,

    I agree absolutely, that's exactly the same I tried to say (in my poor english...)
