when I try to share screen, I get a message saying "You are restricted from screen sharing in this meeting". Does anyone know how to solve this? I have tried changing all the settings in my account ... to allow screen sharing for everyone everywhere! But still when someone joins my zoom, this message comes up.

Are you signed into the "host" account when joining the meeting?

I have just posted this same question - have you found a solution? My settings are as outlined in the previous post?

I am also having the same issue. I'm the host and my settings are correct. Need to screen share for a training in two days. HELP, PLEASE!!!

I had this same problem on my 'pro' account. This is how I solved it:
- go to https://zoom.us/profile/setting
- (log in with your host credentials if needed)
- you should be on the 'Meeting' sub-tab
- in the 'In Meeting (Basic)' section, you'll see a setting called "Disable screen sharing when guests are in the meeting"
- toggle this setting to the left
