On April 16, between 2:25 P.M. ET and 4:12 P.M. ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.

I am using MacBookAir MacOS 14.7.2 and Zoom 6.3.5. I would like to share power point presentation so that I will be seen in front of the slides. However, the advanced option slides as background is not possible. When I choose Share / advanced the option slides as background is not available. There is a small yellow triangle with exclamation mark inside. What to do? If you reply to my problem, please keep your language simple as English is my thurd language - meaning not very strong.

This feature was deprecated by Zoom in 6.3.0 (December 2024 release):

Per Zoom, the best/new way to achieve this is via Screen Sharing Presenter Layouts:

EDIT: But upon eating the dog food and testing this on my own device, I see that Zoom will not allow me to select Slides as an option, even when following these instructions. I smell a bug (or documentation that needs refining)!!
