I am using the Zoom web client and when I go to my video settings, I don't have a virtual background option. All I have are the masked backgrounds and an option to mirror my video.
According to this link and this link the system requirement for virtual backgrounds is 4 real cores or 2 cores with 4 threads. My processor (i5-1135G7) has 4 cores and 8 threads.
I have tried in Chrome and tried on the PWA. I have tried signing out and back in. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
It. Is. Not. There.
Why?

Hello @uscpsycho
You would need to use a Zoom Desktop Client.

Please have a look at the links I provided.
Virtual backgrounds are available on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, PWA and Web client.
So yes, I do need further assistance.
Thank you.
