when i select a background photo for my virtual background, Zoom retains for a day, then it defaults to my office.  I've a laptop with an attached keyboard, screen, camera, & mouse. 

this problem arose only about two weeks ago after Zoom did an update. previously i added a photo which Zoom retained until i chose to change it which periodically i do.

i believe that there is something in the update that is causing the problem. i contacted my IT person and he said there isn't anything he can do because he agrees it has to do with the update.

For training purposes we have set up that employees automatically record meetings because we often forget. We've been through the entire step by step process under the recordings tab and it's working great. The only issue we're facing now is that it's not necessary for all meetings to be recorded specifically internal meetings. I clicked the button under "Recording Notifications" > "Ask host to confirm recording" assuming that a pop up would appear where the host could confirm whether they would like to proceed with the recording or not and that is not the case.  Is there any other way to set up automatic recordings but the host be notified to confirm before proceeding?

Thank you!

For the past few months, there have been issues with Zoom when I'm viewing someone's screenshare.  Bit of background, I work in financial systems support so when we have meetings, we will have few windows open as we are researching items when someone is presenting (or vice-versa).  My company's IT initially thought it was my new computer's issue but when they replaced my laptop with a new laptop (Dell 7330, i7-1255U, 16GB, Win10.0.19044) , it was the same issue.

Once someone screen shares and I would have to switch to different windows or even launching the Start button, CPU usage per Zoom Statistics would instantly start shooting up from 16-25% to 91-99%.  Audio from presenter would start stuttering.  My computer would slow down A LOT to the point that it can take a few secs for any keyboard or mouse response.  This would happen whether i'm at home or in the office.  When I would speak while this is happening, I would ask the people in meeting if my audio is OK and they say they can hear me perfectly.

Any advice from Zoom?

We are in a remote location with cellular data only (via a WiFi hotspot).   The connection is fast, but the cost is high.  There seems to be no way to limit the video quality or otherwise reduce data consumption, other than to turn video off.   Is that true?

Our company had a Christmas shutdown.  Had a meeting last week and my video froze and in the process, turned green.  Uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom and the problem still exists.  Today, another meeting and the problem still existed.  I did not encounter this problem three weeks ago.  This only happens on Zoom.  Are there any changes I need to make to settings to eliminate this issue?
