Surface pen not working after recent zoom update

me too.. what's happen TT

I have the same problem as well with my surface pen after zoom update on 23/07/2022.

Don't think it's just the surface pen the update ruins the whiteboard experience. This prompted me to start researching alternatives. Google meet with the Jamboard interactive whiteboard looks loads better anyway tbh. Planning to migrate my students onto this

I was noticing this behavior two weeks ago after the update on July 11, 2022. Exactly the same. Only on an XP-Pen tablet, not a Surface.

my XP-PEN is glitching a lot after last update in whiteboard, i can't write anything properly

Same thing for us!  I switched to mspaint for a little while and shared that screen, but now use an online whiteboard.  It's super frustrating, but the only workaround we've figured out.

To everyone on this thread, thank you to BSC12 on another thread, reinstalling the older version 5.10.4 fixes the problem.

Yes, you have to go back as far as that version.

I tried it, and it seems to work better.

Are there security issues with running an older version of the desktop client?

Maybe it's better to migrate to a different platform altogether?

Zoom doesn't appear to archive previous versions of their apps. Where can I find a reliable archive (the ones a quick search turn up either light up Netcraft/Malwarebytes as trojans or are incomplete)?

I had not yet updated due to other unresolved computer issues with my dell xps 9575 2-in-1. When I loaded Zoom just now to teach my class, it wouldn't let me without auto-updating. I noticed this error using my Dell ActivePen 579x. I thought it was being caused by the pen. I changed the battery. No help. Tried writing on whatever windows has for some kind of whiteboard. It worked fine. Tried using Zoom and clicking a button on my pen that screenshots and opens up in a separate whiteboard type thing with it's own set of writing buttons. Wrote on there fine. It's something with their app. I have classes in the morning, and it's going to be a pain to screenshot everything I want to write next to and then take 400 screenshots an hour, just so I can teach. They have until Monday to fix it or I am closing my account permanently and finding an alternative solution. How do they not know about this issue and are not communicating to people who have purchased their client's subscription that they are aware of the issue and will be resolving it soon? I have no idea, but I can't wait around to find out. This is affecting my clients and my business in a terrible way right now. Had to cancel several sessions already as I try to resolve it. Also ordered a new Dell Pen for $80 before I learned of this.
