Ability to disable waiting room in meeting is greyed out in security drop-down

Hello,

It is most likely that you are running into the following "Require that all meetings are secured with one security option": https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0059862 

Note: The following account types cannot disable this setting, as it is automatically required: single Licensed user, Pro accounts with 2 or more licenses, any Free Trial accounts, and Business accounts with 10-100 licenses.

If you do not meet the above, you can disable the feature. Otherwise, this is a requirement for Zoom security purposes.

I hope this helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.

Thank you,

Jake

Thanks for the reply. That makes sense.
I want to have the waiting room up until the events starts (so speakers can get in and get set); then I want to disable it once the event starts so  I don't have to manually admit them.

If I were to enable both passcode and waiting room when I set the event up, would I then be able to access the setting in "Security" during the meeting and uncheck 'enable waiting room'?

Thanks,
R
