  • Collaborate
Users of Chrome 32-bit are unable to use "Share Application/Screen" in Collaborate. The user sharing the content will be able to see it but participants in the session will see a black screen. Users of Chrome 64-bit are not affected. Workaround: Other supported browsers are not affected by this issue so we recommend switching to Edge (Firefox is not supported by Collaborate) until further notice.Medium
