Hi,

 

Check under https://zoom.us/account/setting/security for "Only account admin can change users' name, profile picture, sign-in email, and host key".

 

Toggling this setting should allow you to then edit under your Profile.

 

Hope this helps.

Did we ever get any info on how to do this?  I see that we can download version 57.0.0, but I'm afraid to do that because I worry it will start a whole new account

5.7.0 is the correct one, sorry.
