If you have just one screen, then youll likely only see one window.

For PCs with two or more screens, click on the screen you want to share and then click the Start Sharing button.

Click the Screen Sharing Options or More Options button depending on your current view and then select the Switch Screen or Window entry on the pop-up menu (see the screenshot in Step 5).

Press the phone icon located at the top right corner of the window.

You can broadcast what you wanted to share by switching to the appropriate app.

Open Skype again and tap on Stop Broadcast, and the broadcast will cease.
