When I share my screen using on Teams to an Activstudio screen the screen flickers constantly making it impossible to use. It was fine before but no suddenly it flickers like crazy. Is there a fix for this?

    Hi Simon

    Thanks for participating in Microsoft Community, I'm Skypper G. I'm Independent advisor, let me help you with this.

    It is possible that is due to Video card incompatibility issue.

    Try to disable the hardware acceleration from the teams app settings and check if that helps

    I have this exact problem.  But I don't seem to be able to share Activinspire through the web version - it's not an option.

    Any ideas?

    Everything was working fine until this weekend, and now I can't even look at the Activinspire screen I am sharing without having a seizure.

    Hi, I think I've already found a possible solution, at least worked for me.

    One way to avoid this problem is opening excel or another program you want to share with administrator privileges (even if the local or domain user account is already an administrator) and try to share again the window in MS Teams. From now on, the only thing it should blink it's mouse pointer, but is not as critical as the entire interface on the app.

    Hope it works for  you.

    Cheers.

    I have found a work around. If you use the web based teams rather than the app there is no flickering. I've been doing that ever since I discovered it. Works like a dream!

    hardware acceleration is already disabled.

    It was also working fine a few weeks ago. But now not!
