Managing 3 Zoom Windows (too many)

Hi,

 

ON MAC MONTEREY - when I start a meeting I end up with 3 zoom windows

 

1 - white start a zoom window (called Zoom) - I can close this

2 - a zoom meeting window  (called Zoom Meeting)

3 - another that seems to be used for screen sharing (another called Zoom) I can NOT close this cause it tells me to leave the meeting...

 

I do NOT want the 3rd window if no one is sharing a screen .

 

How can I set things up to :

 

Auto quit the startup window after I start anew meeting?

NOT have the 3rd window at all unless someone is sharing a screen?

 

Thanks Much - Dave

    I cannot understand why so many fkn windows are even necessary - get the chat, call controls and video all in one screen, shared content in the other - and if no one is sharing, you shouldnt even see this screen. Any other windows should be the users' choice and their local config.

    Exactly, not only 3 windows, but also an icon on bottom right.  We don't need Zoom to take over the computer.

    Thank you
