      I see it now, unfortunately the lowest Processor that supports  Blur background for Zoom is Intel i3. From the looks of it, your laptop has Pentium processor which is a processor that does not  meet the Technical requirements in using Blur Background.

       

      Another thing to note is, Skype Blur has different Technical Requirement on using Blur versus Zoom so we cannot compare the two.

      It because of your camera is focus on you that's why your surrounding have become blur.

      The ability to use background blur and background removal depends on your computer's processor. Please check it here: Zoom Virtual Background system requirements. You can use a green screen to accomplish this. Additionally, for the cleanest results, use a solid color in the background.

        I had the same problem on my new computer.  No option for blur was there. I was using microsoft.  When I switched to Google Chrome, the blur option appeared.  It worked for me, give it a try.

        Thanks, confirming that using the web version with Chrome browser allowed me to blur my background. I'm on Windows 10 Pro with an i5-2400 processor, which doesn't support blurred background via the desktop client.

        Does this qualify for blur background use?
