Hi @happyzoomer1 ,
Thank you for contacting the Zoom Community! I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue. If the host key option is blocked and you are seeing a message that it is blocked by the administrator, this means that the administrator of your Zoom account has disabled the host key feature.
Please reach out to the Admin/Owner of your Zoom account to further assist. You can find this information by logging into your account > go to Account Profile > then look for the Account Owner.
I hope this information helps you and have a wonderful rest of your week!
Thanks!

I am the owner of the account (Pro version) and I have a host key enabled in the settings but no claim host option appears. I'm not sure I see the host feature being blocked, just that the option isn't there at all. Is this a different version of the same problem?

I AM the account owner and STILL it says the host key option is blocked by the admin. Please advise

Algumas opções de configurações tem a opção bloqueado pelo administrador. Como mudar isso

I am a Pro user like ZombiGrl and believe I am the account owner (as I established the account and do not recall changing anything). Where/how can I confirm who account owner is (I cannot see anything in profile)?
If I am the owner, what should I do?
Thank you.

I'm having the exact same problem. I am the account owner.
In the account settings, the option "Allow Zoom Rooms to start meeting with Host Key" is greyed out and says "Locked by admin". I am the admin!
Please provide any help on how to fix this issue.
