Environment
Resolution
As of
March 26th 2020, the screen sharing settings within your account have automatically defaulted to
Only Host. Learn about re-enabling participant sharing for
individual meetings here.
By default Zoom will allow all participants to be able to share content in a meeting. However, you do have the option the restrict sharing to only the host.
- In the Control Panel in the center of the Zoom meeting window, click the small arrow next to the green Share Screen button.
- In the menu that appears, click Advanced Sharing Options.
- In the popup that appears, under the Who can share? section, click the button next to Only Host.
- Click the X at the top right of the popup window to save your settings and close the popup.
