MS Teams for mac unable to share desktop or other screens - app and online versions

In MS Teams , I cannot share my Desktop / Application Windows. Teams alerts me that it needs Screen Recording permissions, although I have actually granted these before, and the regarding boxes in System Preferences are already ticked. 

I have the newest version of Catalina and Teams. Nevertheless I don´t know exactly which applications are blocking the Teams screen sharing and why., I have followed all suggestions such as using the online version, same issue occurs, removing VPNs and rebooting and updating apps and the mac itself......I use Teams constantly for work and this is causing me a major hassle!

Thanks

    BTW, once I was enabled vis-a-vis screen sharing in Teams as above, this functionality remained even after I went back into Full Disk Access and unchecked the box next to Microsoft Teams.  Probably a good idea for everyone to do this.

    Fantastic - that worked, although the Screen Recording step had to be done a little differently on my machine.  The only way to add Microsoft Teams to the list of apps in the Screen Recording window was to first open up Microsoft Teams, at which point it prompted me to take action regarding granting Screen Recording permission for Microsoft Teams.

    Thanks ever so much for this solution, GR20136!
