Recording abilities can also be restricted by setting presenters to only those who need to present or are the organizer e.g. faculty member only and students will then default to attendee. Attendees don’t have the ability to initiate a recording within Teams.
Also, this effects the default ownership permissions in Stream. We’ve had this issue with students initiating a recording weather by accident or helpfulness but then the recording is owned by the student and the professor can only view and not download/edit. We’ve had to advertise the Meeting Options ability quite a bit because of this.

Is this ever going to change?
It's painful for the people from tech support not able to capture screens when troubleshooting. I come across few users already at Citrix complaining about this.
unlikely (although theoretically possible) - this is the nature of optimization / redirection. The window with the video/screenshare is not running on the VDA anymore.
This overlay window is instantiated by the client Workspace app, hence it runs on the endpoint itself.
You can't expect to be able to capture client-side screenshots from the VDA.

Link to postSometimes a picture of what you see on your computer or mobile screen helps best express what’s going on. Capturing a “screen shot” and attaching it to your support inquiry is really easy and it’s an approach that can put you in the fast lane and get your technical issue quickly addressed. This gives you cross-hairs, to select the part of your screen you’d like to capture. macOS saves them on the desktop and names them with a time stamp. If you don’t see the screen capture file you made, use your “Go” menu for Desktop. Here is Apple’s screen capture help page Check out this help page on making a video Screen Recording.

On a Zoom or Teams meeting with a colleague who won’t stop moving those damn slides along on their shared screen? Whether you’re not able to keep up in the moment or a whole plethora of other reasons you might want to know how to take a screenshot on Windows, we’ve got you covered.
Taking a screenshot on Windows seems like it’s been around since like forever. However, not everyone might have had a good reason to use it.
Thankfully, if you are a beginner, Windows makes it easy – it some cases it’s basically just the press of one button. Windows also offer more complex solutions for more specific needs, and all are super useful.
A slightly different tool to screenshotting that Windows offers is “Snipping Tool”. This allows you to use a resizable box to take a capture of some of your screen – a handy piece of software for taking a capture of a specific portion of the screen. We will be focusing on the more traditional method of screenshotting (via the Print Screen key).

How to take a screenshot on Windows
While taking a screenshot on Windows is pretty simple, the operating system allows you to do it in a number of ways for your convenience. Let’s start with your entire screen:
- Simply find the key marked “PrtSc” and click it
- The image is now on your clipboard
- Head to an image editing program like Paint to paste in your screenshot
- You can now edit and/or save the image
Taking a screenshot of your whole screen was the norm for a long time but, now, you can take a screenshot of a specific window:
- On the window you would like to screenshot, click the menu bar at the top
- Click Alt and Prt Sc together
- You now have a screenshot of the window in your clipboard
- Paste the image into an image editing program like Paint
An even more recent addition to Windows is instantly saving the screenshot as a file. This is super handy if you need to take a lot of screenshots one after the other so don’t have time to save each yourself. Here’s how you do it:
- Press Prt Sc and the Windows logo key together
- The screen should dim to indicate a screenshot was taken
- You can access these screenshots in “Pictures” > Screenshots”
