When a user complains about screen sharing from another user that does not appear on his Lync client (blank or grey screen), please find the following registry keys:

1. 64 bit OS

2. 32 Bit OS

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}


-       Create or change following registry value under this registry key,
Name = “Compatibility Flags”
Value = “8388608


you can also use below PowerShell script to do changes:
