The Zoom Desktop App on my new Dell laptop running Windows 11 doesn’t launch. I uninstalled and downloaded zoom app and reinstalled, the zoom version is latest. I cleared Zoom Cache. Issue is not resolved. The Zoom support could not help further and created a ticket. Any tips regarding this will be appreciated.

    Sorry you’re dealing with that. Since you’ve already reinstalled and cleared the cache, you might try running Zoom as Administrator and checking if Windows security or antivirus is blocking the app. Also make sure Microsoft Visual C++ redistributables and graphics drivers are updated, as Zoom sometimes depends on those. Hopefully the support ticket helps, but these steps have fixed launch issues for some users.
