Sharing Powerpoint on Zoom

When attempting to share  Powerpoint slides on Zoom, the slides open up but I don't see any green border. And there is a notification, " Please move this window away from the shared application." Clearly the slides are being shared to my participants. Can anyone suggest how to overcome this problem? Thanks very much

    Thanks very much. This helps. I am able now to share my Powerpoint slides in both the Basic and Advanced modes. Ray Harwood, you are a life saver!

    Sorry my typo. I mean " Clearly the slides  Aren't being shared to my participants."

      Hey, @perplex,

       

       

      Where possible, always start PowerPoint first, and select the ”PowerPoint Slide Show” window for sharing. See my Screen Sharing guide for a detailed explanation of the best approach for successful shared PowerPoint presentations:

      If this doesn’t help, let me know what operating system you are in e, and what Zoom version you’re running, and I’ll see if I can figure out something to help.
