Unable to find local recording

Hello.

 

I am unable to locate a local recording and hoping you can help.

None of the guidance provided helps in finding it.

Back story:

I was sent an invite.

Accepted then changed to the host and pressed recording.

Once done i stopped recorded.

Other party left and i exited the meeting.

From there i couldn't find it saved on my laptop, in recordings or any place listed it might be.

 

When entering the meeting i simply followed the link and didn't actually sign into my account and wondering if this meant the meeting then wasn't saved.

Is it possible to find the recording anywhere? i still have the original link?

 

Desperate for this recording.

 

Thank you

This actually sounds like it may have been a cloud recording. The reason I propose that is the cloud recording will allows be stored in the account owners Zoom cloud storage. Have you asked the person who started the meeting and made you host if they can see the recording in Zoom Cloud Recording area?

I am in the same boat. I set up a Zoom Meeting. I turned the host duties to another person.
We started the recording of the meeting. I have checked the cloud location and the file locations on my laptop. Nothing. The last recording was from over a year ago. It is as if the recording never took place.
