Co-host controls

The setting to enable co-hosts says that co-hosts have the same in-meeting controls as the host.

However, I find that co-hosts cannot do everything that the host can do.

For example, the host can turn off a participant's camera, but co-hosts cannot.

Please enable all the controls for co-hosts!

Thank you.

@HappyBuddha – according to this Zoom Support article, the cohost should be able to turn off a participant’s video. Not sure why your cohost was unable to do so.

 As you can see from the various tables in the article, there are very few things that cohosts can’t do. 


Ray -- check out the GoodClix website.

Sorry, you're right. It was user error. The co-host can turn off a participant's video. Thanks!
