Zoom keeps reinstalling itself after I've uninstalled it.

Hello, I have tried all ways (listed here https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362983-Uninstalling-and-reinstalling-the-Zoom-applicati...) of uninstalling Zoom (Version: 5.15.2 (19786)) on my MacOS (Ventura 13.4.1) and even removed the installation package as well. However, like malware, it just keeps reinstalling itself. Please advise - thank you.

+1, after hearing about the insecure webserver they are running on my desktop and the other security issues, I wanted to switch to the browser app, but they seem to really not want us to do that, this just re-enforces my decision to want to get off this platform altogether.

Bumping this for Windows, because I've never USED Zoom, and yet two years ago it surreptitiously installed itself and has resisted all attempts to permanently uninstall it.

To date, it has:

-Installed itself for the first time without prompt and by bypassing UAC

-Reinstalled itself without prompt and by bypassing UAC

-Undid manual registry edits done to prevent it from reinstalling or updating itself... and by bypassing UAC

-Continues to repair itself without prompt and by bypassing UAC every single time I delete every .exe stored within its folder in an attempt to prevent it from executing anything.

Enough is enough. Get this malware off my bloody PC.
