Does transferring a session link from one computer to another fail the link?

I work on two different computers and have the same Zoom Account on each. I sometimes set a meeting on my PC and then transfer it to my LapTop that I use for Zoom meetings.  I do this by sending an email invitation that downloads to that computer and starting it from that email, or making a pdf of the invitation and using the pdf to open the session on my laptop. 

Is it typical for this to cause problems of invitees not being able to enter the meeting?  

I do this for expedience because I mainly work on my PC, which is stationery. My laptop is portable and creates a more attractive office view. 

This also may fail when I receive an invitation and transfer it to my laptop.

Is this unusual - or must I always invite and receive on the laptop?

    Are you creating the meetings using the app or web page? Your best bet would be to log into the web page and launch the meeting form there vs trying to pass yourself a link via email.
