Have to download the Zoom every time I join a meeting

Every time I try to join a meeting, even one of my own,  I get this screen:

I click on "Launch Meeting", and nothing happens except that I get "Having issues with Zoom, join from your browser"

Then I click on "Download Now", it downloads, I click on the exe file, finally I can join.

Every time.  Every dang time.

@fulto006  If you log into the zoom app. The blue icon with the white camera. It will be in the dock on a macOS and for a Windows machine click start then start zoom. Log in with your credentials, then when you click on launch it will launch your meeting application. 

When you are entering your credentials there is a check box labeled “keep me logged in” if you choose to check that box you should not have to go thru those steps every time. Hope this is helpful.

You're brilliant, Brandon!   Thanks!

Windows machine here. Same issue but I do not see any blue icon with white camera. When I do try to launch and I download the app each time, bottom left has that message about clicking to make it permanent but nothing to click on
