As of now, we can’t confirm the availability of the universal share button depending on the app on Windows.

The latest feature of the Windows 11 button will allow the share button to function across the Start menu, taskbar, and OS. All the users will be able to share links, texts, or even files without any inconvenience from their desktops. Users will also be able to right-click and see the Share Icon or Share this item dialogue on their Windows machine.
