We are happy to announce that Teams Give and Take Control is now generally available on Windows 365.  Give and Take Control allows a meeting participant to control the presenter’s shared content during screensharing.  

 

With Give and Take Control:  

 

  1. A presenter can give control of the shared content to another meeting participant to help present, change a file, make modifications, or demonstrate something. Both will be in control of the sharing and the presenter can take back control anytime.
