Question: How do updates work with the Zoom client application for Windows/Mac?
Context: Zoom desktop applications on Windows or Mac.
Answer: Zoom automatically requires an update to the local clients for Mac and PC when there are security or critical fixes. These updates run when the application starts and by default, the application starts when the local machine is started. This is true of the standard install and the managed install (.msi).
For less critical updates, updates are manual.
To trigger the update process from the Zoom client:
- Open the local client
- Click on the green dot next to your name
- Select Check for Updates
