Zoom crashes whenever I start my camera

Hello there! For some reason whenever I tried to turn on my camera or add a virtual background, Zoom suddenly crashes or goes on not responding since yesterday. I already uninstalled and reinstalled the app but to no avail. This usually happens whenever I get Windows update. This is getting really frustrating since apparently, my subscription doesn't include Live Agent support. I am a recruiter and I have a lot of upcoming scheduled interviews so I really need your help please ASAP!

I know it's been two years, but did you ever figure this out?  I've been having this issue for months and keep having to uninstall my windows update.  If I install the windows update, my zoom crashes as soon as i try to start a meeting.
