Automatically muted

[robvpp]

When I start a New Meeting, I'm automatically muted. I don't know why Zoom would do that? Is there a setting I can change?

Hi robvpp, 

As a host/co-host you can manage the behavior or the participants, including automatically muting all participants when joining a meeting, as explained here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/203435537-Muting-unmuting-participants-in-a-meeting

Maybe the host of your meeting has this setting enabled.

Hi Jose,

I very much appreciate your response. I've gone/been to that setting and "do not" have the "Mute my microphone when joining a meeting" checked. However, Zoom still has my microphone muted when I join another person's meeting. Would this be a Zoom problem/glitch then?

Hi Jose,

I can't believe I didn't consider that?!

Thank you!
