Zoom will be enforcing a new minimum version (client version 5.8.6 or higher) of all our Zoom clients and plugins this November 5th in order to prepare for a new quarterly minimum version schedule. On the date of each new enforcement, users on a client below the minimum version will be signed-out of their client. Users must update to the minimum version or higher before they are able to sign in to their Zoom account again and regain full access Zoom features. Please see https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360059429231-Zoom-Software-Quarterly-Lifecycle-Policy for more information.
