Screen Sharing Logs Me Off My Mac

On my iMac with the latest Ventura version, when using the Zoom app, when I start the screen sharing and choose the Chrome page I want to share, a small box pops with the green outline and then my user account is promptly logged off as if I clicked the log off button. I have to log back into the computer then.  

 

I've uninstalled the Zoom app and reinstalled it - and about every other thing I've researched - to no avail.  Anyone have an idea which direction to look in?

    I got it to work!  And I fixed the major lag that was happening after I fixed it. (I still need to try it with an actual participant but it's working for me when I'm in the app and it wasn't before.)

     

    For sharing:

    - Uninstall, reinstall, reboot (I'm sure you did that)

    - On Mac... Settings>Privacy & Security>Full Disk Access; allow us.zoom

     

    For the lag:

    Here's something to try that worked for me:

    1. Go into zoom settings

    2. Under “Screen Share” -> Advanced -> Screen Capture Mode

    3. Set Screen Capture Mode to “Previous Operating Systems”
