Hey @Abner, where are you trying to open these Zoom links from? Sharing in Zoom Chat, via email, text, etc.? When clicking on the Zoom join link whats exactly prompt? Any error messages?

Usually, if you've sent a Zoom join link, after clicking on the URL you should be redirected to the Zoom App. If opening from a web browser you'll be prompted to open the Zoom app or you can join through the web browser.

In some cases, the host doesn't include the meeting passcode within the Zoom join link, therefore, you'll have to enter the passcode.

Hey... I'm having the same issue...

  It's showing this whenever I click the link.... And when I click the launch button it doesn't open zoom... I've tried reinstalling zoom... Nothing helped....

Hi! To solve this problem, i just restore Linux's configs. At that time I was working with Linux!

Hi, I'm having a similar problem. Would you mind spelling out what you did a bit more? Which configs do you mean? Thanks!

Hi, i have the exact same problem. On Ubuntu (Pop!OS) it shows exactly that message in firefox but doesnt open the client? Please tell us what you meant with restoring configs!

It is clear that the root cause has not been addressed. So the Zoom owner that setup the meeting just follow the approach that I believe is part of zoom. I get the email and the password and the link. When I press the link I get launched to a macro that wants to open up zoom. Then nothing happens. So my frustrated workaround is to start zoom separately and enter the meeting and passcode and then it works. A feedback mechanism to let people know that the system is waiting for something and what it is and provide the field to input it is a simple solution that for some reason has not been addressed.
