No Microsoft Teams Red Sharing Border (nor controls) on External Monitors

[cmg]

does reverting to 1.9 re-introduces any bugs or issues?

if 1.9 is working, would be be possible to build a 1.9.x maintenance release that contains a backport of fixes/improvements in the 1.10.x branch?

I installed version 1.12 that was released Feb 28, 2025 with no noticeable change. I know we're waiting on Microsoft to fix Teams (at least I think that's our current issue), but was hopeful some type of fix was available in 1.12.

This should be a problem with the displaylink driver because, not only Teams, but also other software doesn't work correctly under 1.12. For example, Authenticator

As I posted previously, it seems fine, but I am noticing that the application sometimes seems to update itself from 1.9 to 1.12, which is the version released this week.

For me what is not clear is: If this is a MS Teams issue, why if I downgrade the version it works?

Hey there,

also using company managed macOS - and deployed the newest version of displaylink software on my device with intune.

i am also experiencing the same issue - version 1.9 is working fine - red border is shown and the sharing tile is there - using version 1.12 it is not working.

Any goal at the dev when to implement that in the new client?

@dbienkowski - Do you know if the Slack team have been "given the same opportunity"? Sharing my screen via Huddle has the exact same issue as described here, but is fixed if I downgrade to 1.9.0. Are there any plans to fix this?


Also, I'm sorry about all the duplicated questions/messages you must face on this forum. I myself didn't learn about the downgrading solution until today, and I've read on this forum since mid-november. So possibly there is a question on Slack as well, but I haven't found it.

I've tested for a couple of weeks 1.9 version and it works great.
This confirms the issue reported by the support as "Microsoft issues" or "Apple issues" are bullshits.

They took months to release the garbage version 1.12 and it's unuseful.

For everyone who is struggling against this issue just roll back to version 1.9.

Companies like you have to stop selling hardware without maintaining good software.


Side note, change the download front page image the chair is floating. That reflects the quality of your products.

@dbienkowski or anyone else, what's the proper way to downgrade to 1.9 on my Mac? Whenever I try to install it, I get this: "DisplayLink Manager can't be installed on this disk. A newer version is already installed."

Hello pgam,

To return to version 1.9, you should download the End-User Cleaner tool and the DisplayLink Manager app again.
You can do it by following this link.

1.12.1 was just released no mention of this bug, we can't all stay on 1.9 forever
