I now have a white clouded border framing my display on Zoom meetings.  Can I turn it off?  If so, how?

    Hello ​@Jerome Cannon,

    Welcome to the Zoom Community! We’re glad to have you here!

     

    Zoom does not have a built-in feature that adds a "white clouded border" around your display during meetings. This effect could be caused by a video filter, virtual background, or a third-party application.

    Here are some steps you can try to remove it:

    1. In your Zoom desktop client, click your profile picture and select Settings.
    2. Go to the Background & Effects tab.
    3. Check if any Virtual Background, Video Filter, or Studio Effects are enabled. If so, set them to None or turn them off.
    4. Restart your Zoom client and join a meeting to see if the border is gone.

    If the issue persists, it may be related to your camera software or another application running on your computer. Try closing other video-related apps and check your camera settings.
