Grey bars on screen

At a couple of online events that I have hosted, when sharing my screen with a power point presentation or video a grey bar has appeared on the screen which interferes with the viewers experience.   I have attached a screenshot so you can see the problem.

Can anyone tell me what to do?

That's the Zoom Screen Share Toolbar. If you turn off Optimize for Video then the gray bars should go away.

Thanks, I see that option when I am in the process of sharing the screen, not in the settings, right?.

Yes, that option appears when you click and open screen share.
