If you need to share your screen with someone else, e.g. for them to help you using FocalPoint:


  1. Open Teams
  2. Click on Calendar, then Meet Now.
  3. Enable/Disable your camera and microphone if you wish, then click Join Now. This will open a meeting with just yourself present.
  4. If the other person has teams open, put their name in and invite - this will call them. Otherwise, click the link icon to copy the meeting link, which you can then paste into an email to them.
  5. You then need to click on Open Share Tray:
    and then from the panel that appears, click on Desktop, or pick a specific window to share.


They can then talk you through whatever task it is you are doing whilst viewing your screen - e.g. in this example the screen being shared is the United Learning Hub login.


They can request control by clicking Request Control, and you will need to click Allow. This doesn't always seem to work, at least not on the laptops I was testing this from.
