Skype: Transfer screen - share it with others

There are several reasons to share your screen with other people. For example, do you have a problem on the computer or do you want to go over a presentation with someone while you Skype? This is where using Skype screen transfer comes in handy.

How to transfer your screen via Skype

Skype is best known for video telephony, which allows you to talk and see your contacts at any time. But Skype has long since found its way into the professional world. For example, if you want to go over a presentation or document with a co-worker remotely, then it is worth starting a screen transfer via Skype.

1. On Windows 10, you get Skype as an app. Start the program.
2. Now click on the contact with whom you want to share the screen and call him.
3. Has your counterpart accepted the call, appear at the bottom of various buttons.
4. Click on the three dots to open a menu.
5. Now select "Transfer screen" here. Anschließend wird die Übertragung direkt gestartet und Ihr Gegenüber sieht, was auf dem Bildschirm passiert.
6. Möchten Sie die Übertragung wieder beenden, klicken Sie erneut auf den entsprechenden Button.
7. Bei älteren Skype-Versionen befindet sich unten anstatt den drei Punkten ein „Plus“-Symbol, auf das Sie klicken müssen.
