Restricted from screensharing

When I join a meeting it shows up as You are restricted from screensharing in this meeting, and my Screenshare button is gone. When I do Alt+S It shows up with a Window showing I am restricted. This has been a problem for over a month before an update I dont know which. When the host enables screensharing, other participants can screenshare but I can't.

Are you the host or a particpant? A host can turn off screen sharing for others.

Hi! Go to zoom.us/profile/setting and under In meeting(basic), select "Disable Desktop screen sharing for meeting you host" and make sure that it is disabled.
