can't join due to needing update

When I tried to login to a zoom meeting, it said I needed to contact my IT department as I needed the latest version.

I tried to manually download the newest update.

I tried removing the Chrome extension.

I tried rebooting my computer.

I tried using the zoom chat bot

I tried clicking on my icon and search for updates but that wasn't listed.

I tried scheduling my own meeting and starting it.

I tried everything I can think of but I still get the message that I need to update.

When I open zoom from scratch, the version number at the bottom of the screen seems to match the version I need.

I tried joining from the browser but the access code for the meeting was incorrect and I couldn't contact anyone through chat to get the meeting password (that isn't a zoom issue, just had the wrong password
