Remote Control Button missing

[CANDERSON13]

"Request Remote Control" button is missing. I've reinstalled the software. Checked the settings and it's set properly. 

How do I do gain the ability to request remote control?

Hi @CANDERSON13 

There might be a few reasons for this scenario:

• The ability to request remote control depends on the host's permissions. If you're a participant in a meeting and the host hasn't enabled screen sharing with annotation or remote control for participants, the button won't be available for you.
• It's possible your Zoom account or group has restrictions set on remote control at the account or group level. This would override any settings you have on your individual Zoom client.

You can also try referring the below help article for reference:

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!

Hi 🙂 What did you do to get the button back? I was forced to do a download and now I have Zoom workplace and I can't find the Remote Control button.

One thing I learned is that the Remote button only shows up if someone else is sharing their screen, otherwise it doesn't appear.

I am suffering from the very same problem(

Look for the button only once someone else is sharing their screen. That's the only time i see it show up.
