Since the latest update of MS Teams (current version 1.3.00.9271 updated on 07/05/20) on a MacBook (early 2015), every time I now join a Teams call, the Microsoft Teams Helper is using >100% of CPU and causing the laptop to overheat. I have disabled the GPU acceleration as seen on some other message boards but this has no impact, and could do with a fix for this ASAP.
Many thanks in advance.

Just entering a call makes my computer completely overwhelm.
Any thoughts on this problem ?
Best regards

BTW: In my case, high CPU usage only appears if I share my screen.
Any news about this problem?

Noting, I had to do the full process - just disabling Screen Recorder access for Teams didn't help. I had to go re-enable it again.
