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.

Remote Control on a Chromebook not working

Hoping someone can help. 
We do basic digital literacy coaching with learners remotely via Zoom. 
Our coaches often use the Remote Control feature in Zoom to access the learner's computer in order to put links on their desktop so they can practice digital skills, or in order to open apps for learners or do other things on their desktop while they learn digital skills. 
PROBLEM: One learner has a Chromebook. 

When the host tries to get the learner to give Remote Control to her in the Zoom meeting, this feature is not available on the Chromebook. 

What do we need to do so the learner's Chromebook allows this feature when using Zoom ? 
Is Remote Control available on a Chromebook ? 
Thank you for any help on this !

Our online school and therapists are struggling without the ability to share mouse control with Chromebooks.  It may have not been supported in the past but it worked and now our school with students across Georgia is struggling to replace the feature with something that makes sense.  I would imagine this feature would be huge for the online school and therapy world.  Caroline if you have come up with an alternate solution that makes sense please adivse.
