since Zoom upgraded a few days ago I can no longer share screen (required function as I teach) - 'share' opens - and when I click a screen, it all freezes, then pop up says programme not responding - wait or close options. 

 

Can anyone offer any nuggets?

    Same here, Zoom crashes at the sharing options screen when the computer has previously been asleep.

    Linux 5.17

    Zoom 5.9.6 (2225)

    Glibc 2.34

     

    lmk if you need further system details

    I should add that it does that without any of the applications open that previously have been mentioned in this thread. I don't run any java applications at all.

    addendum: now it also happened even without the computer having been asleep before...

    I just starting having the same issue.  I can share a screen, but not audio only or video with sound optimized.  

    If I share just sound or try and optmize video sound 

    on Linux Manjaro

     

    The last time I know audio share worked was mid February.

    This is the same issues I'm having.

    Since the upgrade of 365 and possibly Zoom, Zoom freezes my entire computer when I try to share.  I have to do a hard reboot.  I am using Windows 11 on a desktop computer.  I never had this problem before.  I have to be able to share for the classes I teach.  I've tried contacting the University tech department and their only suggestion was to turn off the modem and turn it on again.
