Screen Sharing
Hi all,
I have a problem with screen sharing during Video meetings
When I want to share my screen, only windows openned BEFORE I started the conversation are available. If I close or open a new one, the list is not refreshed. If I quit the conversation and go back, the list is correct.
Is there a way to refresh this list ?
Thanks for your help
FrancoisGregoire is this working for you yet? I now have an updated Teams version. It has the new pre-meeting screen, the breakout room option and the problem with sharing opened applications has been corrected.

I had a conversation with O365 support. They asked me to delete al the files and folder from directory %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams
After this i had my shared screen refreshed when opening a new program.
- NeilShorrterCopper ContributorThe latest from MS is they want me to create a new Windows account because they think mine is corrupted. I've already done this once so I'm not going to do it again. Not too sure why they won't accept this either looks like a bug or a change in functionality.

NeilShorrter hola buen dia....al parecer ya esta bien la opcion de compartir ventana en el Teams....probé el dia de hoy y ya esta bien.....saludos!!.

Buenos días. Pienso lo mismo. Es un error que no es individual sino que afecta a una gran cantidad de gente. Deberían solucionarlo con una actualización del Teams.

Yo tengo el mismo problema al compartir ventanas en una reunión. A la espera del pronunciamiento de Microsoft.

Ivan_Cruz_Smith Qué versión de la aplicación Teams está ejecutando?

NeilShorrter Hola...este error vino desde la versión 1.3.00.28779. Actualicé a la versión 1.3.00.30866 y sigue el mismo problema.

We have the same Problem here. The Support does only ask if we try turn it off an on again and cleared the cache. I hope MS will address this issue soon and fix it.
- GerritB670Copper ContributorWe are having exactly the same problems in Teams.
Running Microsoft Teams-version 1.3.00.30866 (64-bits). Last Updated on 20-11-20.I must admit that I see the same thing now. However, as an earlier poster said, perhaps is actually by design in newer versions? I'm not sure. I will try and find out. There are workarounds in the meantime, and there is every chance a future update will correct or reverse this.

FrancoisGregoireThis could be by design, Skype for Business works the same way. You need to open the application before you start the meeting to be able to share it. Alternatively you can choose to share your desktop and then you can share any applications. I
