I am trying to set up meetings and the pop-up calendar weeks start on Sundays. My brain is having trouble translating it and I am concerned about sending mistaken dates to guests. Anyone know if there is a option under settings for this? I can't find it in the usual places.

I searched the web/reddit/quora and can't find an answer to this one. 

Summary

Clicking the "Copy Invite Link" button in a Zoom meeting causes a complete system freeze on Linux (Wayland/Sway), requiring a hard power-off. The issue is 100% reproducible.

Environment

• Zoom Version: 6.6.11 (6052)
• OS: Manjaro Linux (rolling)
• Kernel: 6.6.107-1-MANJARO
• CPU: 13th Gen Intel Core i7-1355U
• Desktop: Sway 1.11 (Wayland compositor)
• Display Server: Wayland (also tested with XWayland - same result)
• GPU: Intel Iris Xe Graphics (Raptor Lake-P), Mesa 25.2.3-arch1.2
• Audio: PipeWire 1.4.8 + WirePlumber 0.5.11
• Memory: 16GB

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch Zoom on Linux with Sway/Wayland
2. Create a new meeting or join an existing one
3. Click "Copy Invite Link" (or any clipboard button)
4. Result: Entire system freezes immediately - mouse, keyboard, everything unresponsive
5. Only recovery is holding power button for hard shutdown

Expected Behavior

Invite link should be copied to clipboard without affecting system stability.

Actual Behavior

Complete system freeze requiring hard power-off.

Diagnostic Information

Kernel Logs (from journalctl -b -1 after reboot)

Note: These logs are from crash #2 (XWayland mode). Crash #1 (native Wayland) showed identical RT throttling pattern but logs were overwritten by subsequent reboot.

Workarounds Attempted (All Failed)

Analysis

The crash sequence appears to be:

1. Clipboard operation triggers something in Zoom's Qt/CEF code
2. X11 connection breaks - "Did the X11 server die?" (even under Wayland/XWayland)
3. QML cascade failure - 20+ TypeErrors as UI objects become null
4. RT throttling activates - A real-time priority thread deadlocks the scheduler
5. System freezes - Compositor becomes unresponsive
6. D-Bus disconnects - FATAL error, process aborts
7. Zoom segfaults - Only after forced power-off initiated

The root cause appears to be in Zoom's clipboard handling code, which somehow triggers a cascade that takes down the X11 connection and starves the RT scheduler.

Related Issues

• sway#8810 - "sway freezes when I start zoom too soon" - similar Qt5 segfault pattern
• Zoom Community: Multiple reports of "zoom freezes when stopping screen sharing on Linux"

Additional Context

• This same system had similar clipboard freeze issues in August 2025 with Zoom 6.5.7
• Previous workarounds (XWayland mode) worked then, but no longer work with 6.6.11
• A single application crash should not freeze the entire system, but Zoom manages to do this consistently
• The gap between RT throttling and segfault reflects time spent attempting recovery before forced power-off

Reproducibility

This issue is 100% reproducible on my system. I triggered it twice today (2025-12-17):

1. First crash: Running Zoom normally (native Wayland) → clicked "Copy Invite Link" → system freeze
2. Second crash: Running with `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb zoom` (forced XWayland) → clicked "Copy Invite Link" → system freeze again

Both crashes required hard power-off. The XWayland workaround does not help.

If you need additional logs, different debug output, or specific diagnostics, please let me know and I can reproduce with whatever logging you need.

Hi,
I have a personal Zoom account (Basic/free plan) and I’m the only user—there’s no admin or organization involved. Until this morning, everything worked fine, but now my meeting participants can’t join any meetings, even when I start a new meeting and share the correct Meeting ID and passcode.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

• Scheduling new meetings (not using my Personal Meeting ID)
• Double-checking the Meeting ID and passcode
• Making sure the waiting room is off and no restrictions are set
• Having participants try different devices and networks
• Checking my account status and settings

Despite all this, participants still get errors and can’t join. I don’t see any alerts or issues on my Zoom profile, and I don’t have access to direct Zoom Support as a Basic user.

Is there anything else I can do to fix this, or could there be an issue with my account after downgrading from Pro to Basic? Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you!

I've tried to:

Reinstall the app
change the Video Rendering Method to Direct3D11 as I read to do somewhere

This didn't solve it

i have no issues on my laptop.

Thanks for your help..

Hi there, I've got this kind of issue. When I switch between gallery, speaker and standard modes in a video meeting, two of them randomly freeze and become unresponsive. I can still use the third one but I can't even predict which. Tried unchecking all the hardware acceleration modes boxes, tried reinstalling, installing 32 bit instead of 64, doesn't work.

I'm using a PC, video card is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER VENTUS, Win 10 Pro 64, Zoom version is 5.15.6 (19959).

Good afternoon Im currently a member of a men's group who have suffer a recent divorce or separation and I'm trying to do a zoom call for them on Christmas Day so we are not alone but I can't afford to purchase a plan plus it's currently only a one time occurrence.  Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day

How can I remove the speaker thumbnail when recording, so that only the shared screen is recorded, and no thumbnail/speaker is shown?

In Settings > Recording, I have disabled "Record active speaker with shared screen", "Record gallery view with shared screen" and "Record active speaker, gallery view and shared screen separately". I have also disabled "Display participants' names in the recording" and "Record thumbnails when sharing".

Finally, in the meeting itself, under Settings > Recording, I have disabled "Display participants' names in the recording".

Despite all this, I'm still getting a small black box for the active speaker in the top right which shows up in the recording, when I only want to see the slide presentation. Previously, I was able to get rid of this box by changing just the meeting setting to remove "Display participants' names in the recording" but now I cannot find any way to get rid of it.

I restarted the desktop version of the application after changing the configuration, but this did not help.
