Screen sharing not working

I'm using the Teams app, on my Windows 10 laptop.

When I'm on call with my coworkers, I can screen share specifics documents (ex.: screen share one specific Word or PDF file).

 

But I can't screen share my whole screen, to show more than one document at a time (when I click the option, my coworkers only see a black screen or a loading screen).

How can I fix this problem?

 

 

My coworkers don't have this problem and all my software updates are done.

  • Hello, try some of the "standard troubleshooting steps" to see if it helps (not necessarily all).

    - Sign out from your Teams app manually, top right corner, and back in.
    - Update the Teams app (check for updates) also top right corner.
    - Reset the app (remove all content here %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams, copy/paste via Start)
    - Reinstall the app
    - Update your graphics driver
    - Adjust the display resolution
