Hi all,
I regullary take part to meetings opened by the same host/account, that set to ask the participants to give him the permission to activate their microphones.
I always deny permission but one of last times I allowed it by mistake. Now all meetings consider that it is given, I am no more asked to choose yes or no.
It already happened some years ago and then I found in my account a way to cancel the permission.
Something must have changed meanwhile, since now I cannot find it any more.
I hope that some of you can kindly help me.
Thank you

Hi Janet81415, welcome to Zoom Community.
When you set up a new meeting, you have the option to choose whether you want participants to enter your session with their microphone off or on. In addition to this, during the live session, in the security icon, you can enable or disable the permission for them to turn on their microphones. I attach a couple of screenshots.
