[NJTechDiv] Updating Zoom

[Mario Brusco]

Tracy, I don't know if this will work if you don't have an account and 
sign in via the website, but if you use the desktop app and you have 
setup an account, after signing in, tab until you get to your name that 
will probably be closed, arrow up until you hear something about 
checking for updates, and press enter. It will take a while, so be 
patient. Eventually there will be an install button that will pop up. 
The only way to find out, that I know of,  is to keep tabbing around and 
around occasionally. When it finally pops up, press the spacebar on it 
and wait until it's done. JAWS will start talking after a few seconds 
but will finally announce that the update is complete or something 
similar when JAWS calms down. This is one of those times you want to 
hear what JAWS has to say.

JAWS has not been scripted to accommodate this process yet, and probably 
won't. But hey, as long as there is a way to update, right?

Do report back if it worked or not.

Subject: [NJTechDiv] Updating Zoom

I’m having issues with Zoom in some cases, mainly one class.  People say
I should update Zoom, but I can’t figure out how.  Sometimes it updates
automatically, but not for a while.

The only things on the Zoom page are

Join a meeting

Sign up

Sign in

Version 6.2.11

Alt doesn’t bring up anything but the system menu.

Right click doesn’t bring up anything.

My Zoom says Zoom Workplace, if that makes any difference.

I really don’t want to uninstall and install a new version, because I
have a lot of audio settings for music, and I don’t want to have to
start over from scratch.  My Meeting History is pretty useful, too.

Can anyone advise?

Tracy
