Starting May 31, you won't be able to connect to meetings with Zoom version 4 or earlier.
To update Zoom on your computer, open the Zoom application, click on your picture (or initials) in the upper right, select Check for Updates, and install any updates when prompted. Zoom version 5 is required after May 30 to improve meeting security. (If your computer is managed by your IT department, they will update Zoom for you.)
