Want single installation for all users, but also want auto-update

As I understand it on Windows, when installing zoom, I have two choices:

  • Standard installer, which will auto-update but maintain a completely separate Zoom installation for each user.  If there are 5 users, there will be 5 installations for zoom.
  • MSI installer, which will do a single installation to the Program Files directory that will be shared by all users.  However, Zoom will not auto-update.

I want to have a single installation of Zoom shared among all users, but I also want auto-update.  Is there any way to do this?

Sign in to the Zoom desktop client.
Click your profile picture, then click Settings.
On the General tab in the Zoom Updates section, click the check box to enable/disable Automatically keep Zoom up to date.

I think that option is only available with the standard installer (maintain a completely separate Zoom installation for each user).  I don't think it's available in the MSI installer version.

 

Or at least I couldn't find it - maybe I was just being blind.

When I am signed in via SSO, how do I get the client to update? I have a personal paid account and a work SSO account - I can update the client only when I log in as my personal profile.
