Hello,
If none is selected in the Zoom background and effects menu it's very possible that the virtual background is coming from your operating system or some other program.

I believe this is my issue, but I need instructions to fix the problem. Where can I find/delete the image that i uploaded as a background image. When I select NONE in virtual images, the image is still there. HELP

Hello @mLinco! If you're using macOS, it's possible that the background was uploaded directly to your computer instead of through Zoom. Once the meeting starts, a green video icon will appear in the top-right corner of your Mac's menu bar. Click the icon and uncheck 'Background' to remove the virtual background.
