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.

    Apologies, I meant all of us in my company (edited my post to make it clear)

    I do understand that you may not wish to share your desktop screen - but could you confirm if the flickering stops if you do share the desktop instead a window/

    As wcbuerste wrote this is not helping "for all of us".

    I massivly have this problem as well while sharing windows and sometimes even in full screen sharing. Also you don´t want to share the whole screen in every case... ;)

    Playing around with deactivated GPU support and reinstalling Teams with clearing all the cache folders did not help so far.
