Hello,

There are a few things you can double-check here:

-First, make sure you join the meeting while being signed into the same Zoom account in which you scheduled the meeting. If you join the meeting but aren't signed in, Zoom cannot recognize you're the host.

-Second, I'd recommend double-checking the meeting ID to ensure it matches with your scheduled meeting. It is possible you're starting a new meeting or joining an old meeting ID.

Hope this helps. If so, please select "Accept as solution". Thank you!
