Local recording not showing speaker/teacher in top right corner

For the past two plus years, like most teachers in America, I have been using Zoom to have online virtual classes.  I have always recorded the class meetings locally and then posted them on my website for students. For the first couple of years Zoom included the teacher/speaker in a small window in the top right corner while I shared my computer screen to the class in the local recordings. This was great because I tend to use my hands and a facial expression a lot during lectures.

Now the teacher/speaker window is not included in local recordings. The same thing happens no matter which computer system I am on when I teach the class. The teacher/speaker window is available while the class is live, but not in the local recordings. I searched the internet for an explanation and looked for help so I can fix the problem, but I have not found one. 

Please share with me how I can get the teacher/speaker window back in the top right corner of local recordings. 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Could you check if the settings in blue are still enabled in your Zoom client?
