remote control uac

We're using Teams for chat and video meetings, but would like to use the screen sharing and remote control for troubleshooting and suppport requests. However, Windows does not pass UAC prompts through the Teams screen sharing.

2021 and Microsoft is still yet to fix one of their main issues admin users are currently having with Teams. With more and more end-users working from home, this should be one of the key features available in teams to enterprise users of Office 365.

Teams still with the barely working share screen for admin work.

TOP TIP: Win10 has Quick Assist built in, use that instead for the time being. it provides more access than Teams

This is the one facility that is a little bit clunky with limited admin access at the moment, but really is a requirement.

Using third party apps means even more system resources i.e. another application running when only one should facilitate this, so please Microsoft fix fix fix.
