How to Screen Share in Microsoft Teams on Desktop
On a Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer, you can use Teams web version or the app to share your screen in a meeting.
To start, first, launch Microsoft Teams on your computer and join a meeting.
In the meeting, at the top of the Teams interface, click the “Share Content” option (an up-arrow icon).
You will see a “Share Content” section to the right of the Teams interface. To share your computer’s entire screen, then in this section, click “Screen.” To share a specific app’s window, click the “Window” option instead.
If you select the “Screen” option, Teams will start presenting your desktop’s screen in the meeting. You will see a red border around your screen indicating the screen is being shared.
Note: On Linux, you will not see the red border around your screen when it’s shared. You also can’t share a specific app’s window on Linux.
If you choose the “Window” option, select the app window that you’d like to share.
When you’ve finished your meeting and you want to stop screen sharing, then at the top of the Teams interface, click “Stop Presenting.”
And that’s all there is to screen-sharing in Teams on desktop. Very useful!
Like Teams, you can also share your screen in Zoom and Google Meet meetings.
