Why does Microsoft Teams crash whenever I share my screen during a meeting with a system with an AMD GPU?
Very recently, whenever I start sharing my screen during a call in Microsoft Teams (be it with someone, or even when I'm alone in an instant meeting), the desktop app would crash instantly and restart for no apparently reason. Upon checking the event viewer, this is what I see: ms-teams.exe 26213.1006.5014.9784 6a7d9ea7 amdxx64.dll 32.0.31041.1004 6a7a4868 c0000005 00000000000d0c82 2d80 01dd3ca8b4768820 C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\MSTeams_26213.1006.5014.9784_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\ms-teams.exe C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\u0203304.inf_amd64_a6e5a337568ce3f0\B026373\amdxx64.dll 873f7ba0-c376-444e-adac-7e86bcc7b5f3 MSTeams_26213.1006.5014.9784_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe MSTeams It looks like this problem is related to AMD drivers somehow, and upon checking online, I have found some people who've had the same problem at least 2 years ago, but unfortunately, the only solution any of them found was to ditch their AMD graphic card and get an Nvidia one (which I don't want to do, seeing that it works for every other use cases). Reinstalling the driver didn't seem to help. For some reasons, the web version of Microsoft Teams is working fine and screen sharing works without any issue. Only the desktop app is crashing. Not sure how relevant to the problem this is, but I am currently running a dual booted Windows 10 (the other OS being Linux Mint).
