Re: screen sharing issue

If you have not yet updated your Skype to the latest 5.9 version, then what you are seeing is most likely due to a bug in the previous 5.8 version, where screen sharing was disabled when the contact was in “Invisible” state.

Re: screen sharing issue

In recent versions screen sharing with webcam still running is only supported with a Premium subscription.   If you don't have Premium, turn your webcam off before trying to share your screen.  Then turn webcam back on when you stop sharing.
