Is this possible? This new update is horrible for my productivity. The drop down for dates and times versus tabbing through them and typing is not what I want, and it no longer connects to my iCal like it used to, making me have to manually add every single meeting to my calendar. Can I just go back to the last version? Or is there a setting to revert these changes? Driving me crazy.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I totally agree. I really hope Zoom might offer the option of the dropdown meeting duration rather than having to set the finish date and time. And while they're at it, to fix the date format so it doesn't just show in US format (grrr).
You can download older versions of Zoom meetings here for Windows: https://zoom-us-zoom.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions and here for Mac: https://zoom.en.uptodown.com/mac/versions
I believe Zoom changed the Schedule meeting window format from version 5.12, so you'll have to revert to 5.11.11. I've not yet downgraded my wife's Mac Zom app, so I'm not sure if you can just install on top of the newer version or if you'll have to uninstall the newer app first. However, it was just a question of clicking the install file and it worked for Windows.
Hope that helps.

In the navigation panel, click Room Management then Zoom Rooms. Click the Devices tab. Select Downgrade Zoom Rooms. Click Downgrade to confirm.

I found "zoom rooms" but don't see an option to downgrade! Help please. I can no longer use Zoom after I upgraded to 5.13.3. I have an older Lenovo desktop, I guess it can't handle the newer version. Thanks.

You're the man! This completely fixed it without a need to uninstall the newer version. And it was indeed 5.11.11. Thank you so much--lifesaver!!

Yeah REally! its like the update rolled out and we are back in the dark ages. No integration to mail software or calendars. have ot manually input peoples e-mail addresses, and no reminder in the calendar. BAD move from Zoom. It feels like someone from Microsoft teams has taken over and messed it all up.

The solve worked, downlaod version 5.11 and then it's back to some normal functionality

Agreed. The update happened this morning. It is not as practical as it used to be with so many disruptive features. Is it possible to go back to the classic version?
