My screen sharing is disabled once a participant joins. I am the host/owner of the account. I have enabled the disable desktop sharing in settings, meeting (basic) but this has not resolved the issue. Please help.

Hi CarolineC  For Basic accounts, screen sharing is set to Only Host by default.

Can you update to the latest version?

I am seeing the same problem. But my account is not basic. As soon as someone joins my meeting, I am blocked from screen sharing. And I am very proficient at screen sharing since I have used it for teaching.
