Captioning Zoom Sessions

Online resources instructing me how to enable captioning Zoom sessions point to:

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/4409683389709-Enabling-manual-captions

but  its Step #3 says to click a "Meeting" tab with a "In Meeting (Advanced)" option.  I have searched and found no such tab and option.

 

Has Zoom possibly upgraded without the instruction being updated?

    That seems to have done the trick.  Thank you.
     
    It does give me several options, and I'm not sure which is the one to select so that a deaf attendee will be able to turn on captions. Is the button that I moved to the right below the correct selection?

    Yep! You're all set to allow users to enable captions if they need them 👍

    @pshikli,

     

    When you go to "Account Settings", I'd recommend just using the search bar at the top. You can search the word "captions" and follow the rest of the article from there.

    If you are still having trouble, please share a screenshot of what you're seeing/where it is you're looking.

    Hi Cameron,

     

    Perhaps I'm in the wrong place but I also see no search option per the attached screen capture:

    @pshikli,

     

    If you close your Zoom desktop app window, and look at the web page, the search bar will be in the web browser right behind it.

    From there you can search for captions and follow the steps.
