This started about the time Microsoft updated Outlook and made it possible to add a Teams meeting to every meeting by default and, of course, defaulted that option to true. I have since turned that option off in settings, but this is what my screen looks like when I add a zoom meeting now.

I have a laptop that allows for multiple desktops to be running. Is it possible to run/access a meeting under different zoom accounts on the same device but on different desktops? Currently, if i launch a meeting on Desktop 1, then go to Desktop 2 and attempt to access zoom, it just puts me back on Desktop 1.

Hi. I am doing a meeting, and have had to restrict the number of participants. I am wanting to create a reply message to those who are still wanting to register after the maximum number has been achieved. This message would have the alternative dates, and the option to register for the new dates. Is this a possibility?

I recently tried to record a zoom meeting. Then was confused when I could not find it available as a local recording. After starting another meeting, I realized that the recording button said it would start a cloud recording, with no other option to record locally. My application version is 5.9.1

I love the ability to save a transcription of my Zoom meetings, however I don't need a timestamp every 12 seconds. I rather have no timestamp at all, or one at the beginning and end of the meeting. Is there a way to deselect the timestamp on live transcription before I save it? At the moment, I am editing them out of the final document which is a fair bit of editing on an hour long meeting. thanks for your help!

I added state and city to the required questions section of the registration options. Is there a way to view the city and state of those who registered by using the "View" button across from the "Manage Registrants" on the manage screen of the meetings? I don't want to run a report multiple times a day to access this info. I have multiple Zoom accounts, so I can't log in and out a bunch of times to view this info as a report only. I sent a test to myself and those were required fields that I filled out, but I don't see the info populate on the manage registrants screen.

I saw a zoom session where the speaker started with full screen of their video of themselves...during conversation they would toggle to full screen of PPT or Chrome session (with their video in lower right). Once done with the content they could easily switch back to full video of just themselves.... Here is a LINK of what I'm talking about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F56Qh5WMd5g how is this done?

Hello,
It seems over several updates the "Copy and Past" functionality has been severely broken during remote desktop control. There are many users, using this feature to provide support and collaborate with others.
17K Viewers agree ...

Currently the steps are vague to get this functionality to work currently, I would like to share the suggestion for further development ... Keep in mind if people are asking for remote support, the likely have very little understanding of Zoom and finding another option to enable Clip board sharing on top of allowing remote control is an unnecessarily arduous process. Thus we need a "Very Simple" solution.
Please add the option to "Request Remote Control" with "Clipboard Sync" enabled OR after requesting control, a way to request clip board sync. If there are steps that Zoom requires from the OS to allow screen sharing or Clipboard support, the customer should be provided with a URL link directly for the OS to allow such behavior to work.
Please strongly consider this suggestion, as it will greatly impact the overall quality of the service Zoom provides.
Thank you.
