Recordings going directly to trash

[MindfulMovemen1]

My Zoom recordings are delivered directly to the trash, not the recording folder.

1) I have checked the settings and confirmed that I have NOT selected that option by mistake. 

2) I am not at my recording limit as Pro allows 5GB and I only have 3500 MB in recordings

3) I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Zoom App from my computer to no avail

4) I have disconnected and reconnected Zoom integration with my teaching platform, heyMarvelous--this did not help

Any ideas?? This just started happening a few weeks ago. All was fine before that.

Find the recording you want to exempt and click the ellipsis icon . Click Disable auto-delete. This, and any other exempt recordings, will display Disabled under the Auto Delete In column.

Thank you Rachel. Yes in fact it may have been due to a 3rd party app zbackupapp.com, which unbeknownst to me was set to automatically trash zoom recordings after storing it on their app. However this still doesn't explain why some recordings were delivered to my teaching platform while most were not, so I am still keeping an eye on the situation. I also did uninstall and reinstall my Zoom App on my computer as well. So fingers crossed.
