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

Anonymous

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

I found this to work now... not sure why this allowing MS Teams in Screen Recording works.... but it does.

I've also recently had this problem, which coincided with upgrading to Mac OS Big Sur (quite late to the party!)

It's in the Mac privacy settings (which I misread below, sorry I'm tired!) teams and zoom are automatically switched off in this upgrade it seems. You need them checked for it to be enabled.
