I want to STAY in Full Screen when sharing ends

Mac OS - I uninstalled and reinstalled. This solved the issue. 

Nope - This problem is now reoccurring. Thinking that by uninstalling and reinstalling had solved the problem this is now not the case. 

Same here, it's a pain.

I am having the exact same problem and wish I knew how to fix it. Thanks for posting the question. I hope someone will post a solution. In the meantime, I learned I can double click the small window and it then becomes full screen.

Update 5.16 is now with us. I uninstalled previous versions of the Zoom client across all 3 of my MacBooks and reinstalled. The good news is that the issue of exiting full screen after share screen is stopped so far seems to be resolved. Just make sure to check your audio settings as it did reset some of mine and if you use side by side when share screen is on you might have to reselect this option. 

@arambasil this doesn't seem to relate to the issue people were reporting, which is that we drop out of full-screen mode to a normal window whenever *other people sharing their screen* stop their screen share, as well as when we ourselves are sharing. Nor is "Click this button to return to full screen mode" at all helpful. That extra step of finding the zoom meeting window again after it's been returned to a random Space on one of multiple screens, and having to manually return to full-screen when we've already tried to configure the client to stay in full-screen altogether is what we're trying to avoid. 

I can relate to your experience. I've encountered the same issues as TomDibble mentioned – losing all settings and automatically exiting full-screen mode after someone completes a screen-sharing session. However, my situation is a bit unique. In our case, we often have hybrid meetings where one person shares their screen on a TV while others participate remotely. When a remote presenter finishes their session, the automatic exit from full-screen mode can be quite frustrating, to say the least.

I'm still having the issue where when I share full screen and then stop sharing, my zoom window reverts back to un-maximized size (not completely minimized) size on my primary desktop and often buried under other applications I have open in that desktop which are not maximized.

I'm running Version: 5.16.10 (25689) which I moved to by uninstalling the previous version.  I also uninstalled and reinstalled this latest version as someone in the thread mentioned that it worked after doing that.

Please advise.

Thank you

Still having this issue in 2024. Any updates? Thanks. 

Agreed still an issue when zoom is full screen which on Mac is another desktop, when I stop sharing the zoom window reduces in size and goes back to the main desktop.  If there are other open windows on the main desktop it ends up behind them which requires a bit of hunting or hitting zoom from the icon bar to make it come to the front.  All of which can be rather frustrating when presenting, particularly switching between sharing various content.
