My Zoom meeting won’t record

 Problem

It’s probably an issue with your permissions. Here’s what to do.

Solution 1: Manage Zoom permissions

Only hosts can record Zoom meetings, or pass that ability on to someone else. If you’re supposed to be the recorder in your meeting, ask your host to give you permission with the Participants menu, where the More button will show an option to Allow Record.

Solution 2: Ese built-in screen recorders

This is somewhat clunky, but both Windows and macOS have built-in screen recorders you can turn on to capture the portion of the screen where your Zoom meeting is taking place.
