Zoom is not identifying me as the host when I start a meeting

There has been a recent change to my Zoom meetings and I cannot figure out why. When I start a scheduled meeting as the host, I am not recognized as the host when it starts up. This has just changed since 1 week. Before I would be recognized as the host - no problem. 

Can you let me know why this is happening and how I can be recognized again as the host when I start a meeting?

Thanks,

Anna

Make sure you have SIGNED OUT on ALL DEVICES. In the web portal go to your profile, scroll to the bottom and make sure you are not signed into any other devices.

Thank you.  I was signed on two devices and signed out of them.  When I have my next meeting I’ll check if this works.  I hope so and appreciate the information

Make sure you are logged in using the Zoom account that the meeting was scheduled with. Maybe you have two accounts and are logged into the wrong one. Otherwise so the force logout as described previously.
