I don't know where else to post this question, apologies if there's a better forum. My account type is Zoom One Pro (5.17, Mac) for client meetings and group trainings only. Been using it for years. I don't recall when they added this rigamarole on the left, but I don't want to look at it. I'm the sole employee at my company, not an enterprise customer. Where do I go to hide it or turn it off? I just want to see the "old school" home screen, which is now shoved over to the right and missing the New Meeting buttons and such. 

I've read (on reddit/r/zoom) that I should go to my admin portal and "turn off the ability to chat with other people." But that option does not appear anywhere in my settings. I have two sets of settings, one says "Personal" and the other "Admin".  In Admin > Team Chat Management, there's only one category, "Channels" and it says I've not created any Channels yet.  So aggravating! Please help. 

I have been trying to add custom emojis in zoom but get the error message "You are no longer authorized to edit custom emojis." I am the admin of the account. I looked at the help form for enabling custom emojis and it says to click Account Management then Account Settings. There is no Account Settings option for me.

Has anyone figured out this issue?

i am trying to add custom emojis to my personal zoom account that is not tied to any organization but i am not authorized to add them. i believe i am not admin but still somehow owner of the account.

i haven't been able to find a way to change this so i can add the emojis. how would i be able to change the settings so i could do this?

i have been using zoom app on my windows 11 computer. i have checked out account management and profile but did not see anything in those to change these settings.

thank you.
