Pontus Själander Tried opening both many tabs and windows.

Also changing the Multitasking setting as mentioned by StevenC365 . BTW Steven, yes it started when upgrading to 20 20H2, so it Edge exposing tabs as windows that causes this. That would be alright if you were then able to share the tab, but nothing gets shared. Other participants Teams, does react like some is starting to share something, but then nothing gets shared. 

ChristianBergstrom also tried cleaning appdata and making sure everything up to date. No luck. 
Will try an uninstall/reinstall as soon as i have the time. 

Thanks for the suggestions :smile:

    m4tthallNo. But I have noticed that Teams actually, in addition to all the tabs also gives you the option of sharing the entire window. Typically it is one of the last thumbnail's.

    But I would like to get rid of all the tabs, that will not share anyway 🙂

    But in my case, I have run into another problem, as dropdown boxes on webpages, is not getting shared.
