Sharing your screen is an important part of many Zoom calls. It’s as easy as clicking Share Screen at the bottom of the Zoom window. If you’re planning to share your screen during a call, check a couple of settings first.
Solution 1: Check your connection
Sharing your screen takes up a lot of bandwidth. Make sure that you have a solid internet connection and that you’re connected to the call. Use a wired connection, if available, for the best performance.
Solution 2: Try a Share Screen meeting
On the home screen, click the down arrow icon next to New Meeting and uncheck Start With Video. Your meeting will then start with only audio, freeing up bandwidth. Your video will not be automatically turned on.
Alternatively, if you’re already on a call and need to share your screen, turn off your video by clicking the Stop Video button and then select the green Share Screen button.
