    Hi @MSKM1920 can you please elaborate more as to what the issue is with 'raise hand'? Here's more info on Raising your hand in a webinar as you Click Raise Hand in the webinar controls to raise your hand or lower it. 

     

    Looking forward to your reply!

    It is raising at random times constantly without me clicking on it.

    @MSKM1920 Interesting, are you accidentally pressing the key combo Alt or Option +Y? A Host can lower your hand, however, cannot raise it for you. 

     

    For example, the Host is able to lower the hands of panelists 

     

    And for attendees 

     

    As I am unsure what you're experiencing, have you tried updating your Zoom client? Or uninstalled and reinstalled?

    I’m the host and this is happening to multiple people in my webinar.  
    a similar issue was reported in the community but it referenced  an iPad  user.   They are not accidentally pressing the button.  I have asked that they make sure that they have the most current version of zoom.

    Hey @MSKM1920 gotcha. Okay, I went ahead and converted your Zoom Community discussion into a support request #13683620 because this is a one-of-a-kind situation, our internal Support teams have the tools and our Support Agents may be better equipped to solve this for you.  🙂 Let me know how else I can help!
