Zoom refuses screen sharing permissions unless I sign in every few days

Typically, when I sign into Zoom on Windows, I will be asked to enter my username and password about once per week or so. It will remember my credentials for repeat uses within that timeframe. If I open a new meeting and I haven't explicitly logged in with my username and password, it will deny my the ability to allow multiple participants to share the screen. This is really annoying, as I have no way of knowing when this lack of full hosting capabilities is going to kick in. The only fix is to ask everyone to log out and then log in with username/pw.

 

Is there a workaround to this very annoying glitch?
