@lynnweitzman - Are you saying your Zoom window is minimized, or the window you are trying to share is minimized?  Are the other participants seeing what you are sharing, or are you saying it is still not working?  Do you get an error, or was it just not showing users what you were sharing?

The screen I’m sharing looks minimized.

Do the other participants see it minimized?  And are you sharing a full desktop, or an individual window?  If it is an individual window, is it a browser or another application?  Are you able to restore the window you are sharing once you start screen share?
