After the latest round of updates about 5% of our Lenovo laptops can no longer join SFB meetings and or share their screens. The only resolution we have found is to do a system restore.
– Graphic drivers and audio driver changes had no affect.
– Uninstalling and re-installing have no affect
– Manually Removing the latest updates also did not seem to solve the problem.
