how do you remove the share screen bar on teams calls?
Hi everyone, The newest update of Teams has a pretty constant share screen bar across the screen. It goes away after 5 seconds but comes back everytime you mouse over the screen/click on anythin...

Agreed, the Teams update in Nov 2023 puts a blocking item at the top center of the screen even after the original bar disappears. It prevents switching browser tabs during screenshare. The (VERY annoying) workaround is to resize the browser to not be full screen and pull below the "don't forget you're sharing screen" notice 😕

Click on the ellipsis (3 dots ...) beside your name at top right of Teams and disable New Teams. That will revert you back to classic (old Teams) and the task bar disappears.
Sorry to say I liked the new Teams except for this functionality.
