Hi, screen share has not been working in any of my meetings for any participant (including the host) for a month now. My settings all look appropriately enabled to me, and I did not attempt to change any settings. See attached screenshots. Any idea how to resolve? I noticed the other posts about screen sharing, but none of them appeared to have a solution for this Thank you!

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @coachingwfarah.

 

Describe “not working”? Is there no Share? It’s it greyed out? It can start sharing but get an error?  More information might help us help you. 


Ray -- check out the GoodClix website.

The Share button is visible. When I click on it, it opens but then I get a pop-up message that Share is not available. The message says I need to update my Settings. If the participant tries to share, they get a pop-up message that the Host has disabled Sharing. Let me send screenshots after trying what Rachel wrote above to see if it makes any difference. Thanks!

@coachingwfarah, before you go to the trouble of uninstalling, etc., please take a look at your settings on the Zoom Web Portal (https://zoom.us/profile/setting😞

Make sure that Screen Sharing is enabled (the switch will be blue, and the white dot to the right), and to ensure that Participants (other than Host/Co-Hosts) can also share, make sure the All participants radio button is selected.

 

Not having Screen Sharing enabled here will give you the messages you described.
