    Hello @ajaypande 

    I apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing. If you are on the latest version of Zoom, it is possible that the windows device you are on does not meet the requirements:

    Image only without a physical green screen

    • Zoom desktop client, version 5.2.0 or higher
    • Windows 7, 8, and 10 (64-bit)
    • Supported processors 
      • Intel i3 
        • 2 cores or higher
        • 5th generation or higher
      • Intel i5
        • 2 cores or higher
        • 3rd generation or higher
      • Intel i7
        • 2 cores or higher
        • 3rd generation or higher
      • Intel i9 
        • 2 cores or higher
        • 3rd generation or higher
      • AMD
        • 8 logical cores
        • 3.0Ghz or higher

    If your device does meet the requirements, please verify that you are logged into your Zoom desktop client with your Zoom account. I hope this helps!

    I must have a green screen to use this option?

    I have a 2-yr-old Macbook Air (intel based) and another much older PC laptop. The blur option is available in the latter and I can't get it on the Macbook no matter what I do. I can understand what I'm missing and it's a little annoying.

    have the same issue. I am on an Acer Aspire R3-131T 11.6 inch Touchscreen Notebook

     

    Windows 10 64 bits
    Processor Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N3060 @ 1.60GHz 1.60 GHz. Is this not supported  ?

    Thanks

    I also have a Mac Air 2020 with 1.1 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i3 (seems to meet requirements) but does not have the Blur option either with the most up to date Zoom software.
