Hello,

 

Its better to have the zoom app signed in to avoid multiple times sign in and out. Please follow these steps and article to understand the joining process:

 

  1. Open the Zoom desktop client.
  2. Join a meeting using one of these methods: 
    • If you want to join a meeting without signing in, click Join a Meeting.
    • If you want to join a meeting by signing in:
      1. Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
      2. Click the Home tab.
      3. Click Join.
         

         

  3. Enter the meeting ID and your display name.
    • If you're signed in, change your name if you don't want your default name to appear.
