Hello @ThivishanFlash 

Have you confirmed that you are on the correct version of Zoom? Also, be sure that your virtual background settings are correctly enabled.

Thank you!

Please login to your account and navigate to Admin Portal => Account Management => Account Settings => Virtual Backgrounds.

If you are not an Admin, you can check your settings by logging in then navigating to Settings under your Profile Menu then In Meeting (Advanced) per the attachment.
