Yesterday I wanted to record an interview but Zoom pop-up said that I need to ask host for permission. DUH - I was the host! Why did I lose that feature, after updating Zoom? Lost valuable data...

Hi @aBk
Sounds like you were not logged in to your account and thus not recognized as the host. Please make sure you are signed-in to the Zoom desktop client before joining the meeting.

Hi @aBk – @Bort is correct that you were probably not logged into your Zoom application when joining your meeting and therefore Zoom was unable to identify you as the host.
Of course, you should be signed into the Desktop application before joining but, if this ever happens again, rest assured you can still login and claim the Host controls using your Host Key.

Seems that your school changed the sharing permissions for that recording. You will need to contact them.
