Issue regarding sharing the screen

Dear all,

I wanted to share my screen but only got the 'screen' option showing the zoom application. Even though I had other apps open I didn't get the option to share any of them. 

Any ideas as to why this happened?

Many thanks

You did enable 'screen sharing' in your setting, I presume?

Screen sharing is enabled. I can share my screen but the option to choose the app that I want to share is not available even though I have those apps open.

Thank you so much! I followed the instructions and it works fine now.
