Hello,

 There are two kinds of Zoom recordings:

 

  • Zoom Cloud recordings. These kind of recordings always go to the host’s Zoom cloud storage regardless of who pressed the record button.
  • Local Zoom Recordings. These kind of recordings go on to the local hard drive of the person who pressed record.

 

 By default, local recordings will be placed in following directory:

 

  • Windows: C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\Zoom
  • Mac: /Users/[Username]/Documents/Zoom
  • Linux: home/[Username]/Documents/Zoom

Here is a link to a Zoom support article that explains this in more detail.

    Hi,
    I have a mac and the recording is not in the location you mentioned, nor anywhere else on the computer. Is it possible that the recording was not saved because i entered the call through zoom's chrome client?

    Hi @orencd if you went through the Zoom Web Client and not the Zoom Desktop Client, you'd only be able to cloud record from the Zoom Web Client.

     

    If you're a licensed user and are able to cloud record, please go to https://zoom.us/recording for your processed cloud recordings. 

     

    If you're a basic user, unfortunately there is a possibility you did not record locally. IF on the Zoom Web Client within your web browser.

     

    You also said, "Zoom's Chrome Client", which if you're on ChromeOS e.g., a Chromebook, local recording is not supported, only cloud recording. More info within the knowledge base article on Getting started with the Zoom web client
