|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
Run the following command to install Zoom:
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
```bash
|
|
96
|
+
brew install --quiet --cask zoom
|
|
97
|
+
```
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
99
|
+
The `--quiet` flag suppresses non-essential output for automation-friendly installation. The `--cask` flag specifies the graphical application version.
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
After installation, launch Zoom from the Applications folder or via command line:
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
```bash
|
|
104
|
+
open -a "zoom.us"
|
|
105
|
+
```
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
**Note**: On first launch, Zoom will prompt you to sign in or join a meeting.
|
|
108
|
+
|
|
109
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
111
|
+
Confirm the installation succeeded by checking if the application exists:
|
|
112
|
+
|
|
113
|
+
```bash
|
|
114
|
+
ls /Applications/ | grep -i zoom
|
|
115
|
+
```
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
Expected output:
|
|
118
|
+
|
|
119
|
+
```
|
|
120
|
+
zoom.us.app
|
|
121
|
+
```
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
Verify Zoom can launch:
|
|
124
|
+
|
|
125
|
+
```bash
|
|
126
|
+
open -a "zoom.us"
|
|
127
|
+
```
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
**Problem**: `Error: Cask 'zoom' requires macOS >= 10.15`
|
|
132
|
+
|
|
133
|
+
**Solution**: Your macOS version is too old. Zoom requires macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later. Upgrade your operating system before installing.
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
**Problem**: "zoom.us is damaged and can't be opened" error
|
|
136
|
+
|
|
137
|
+
**Solution**: Clear the quarantine attribute:
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
```bash
|
|
140
|
+
xattr -cr "/Applications/zoom.us.app"
|
|
141
|
+
```
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
**Problem**: Cask already installed
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
**Solution**: If you need to reinstall, first uninstall then reinstall:
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
```bash
|
|
148
|
+
brew uninstall --cask zoom
|
|
149
|
+
brew install --quiet --cask zoom
|
|
150
|
+
```
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
**Problem**: Conflict with zoom-for-it-admins cask
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
**Solution**: The `zoom` and `zoom-for-it-admins` casks conflict. If you have `zoom-for-it-admins` installed, uninstall it first:
|
|
155
|
+
|
|
156
|
+
```bash
|
|
157
|
+
brew uninstall --cask zoom-for-it-admins
|
|
158
|
+
brew install --quiet --cask zoom
|
|
159
|
+
```
|
|
160
|
+
|

### Ubuntu/Debian (APT)
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
- Ubuntu 18.04 or later, or Debian 10 (Buster) or later (64-bit x86_64)
|
|
168
|
+
- sudo privileges
|
|
169
|
+
- At least 500 MB free disk space
|
|
170
|
+
|
|
171
|
+
**Important**: Zoom only provides 64-bit x86_64 packages for Debian/Ubuntu. ARM-based systems are not supported with native packages.
|
|
172
|
+
|
|
173
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
174
|
+
|
|
175
|
+
**Step 1: Download the Zoom .deb package**
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
```bash
|
|
178
|
+
wget -q https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_amd64.deb -O /tmp/zoom_amd64.deb
|
|
179
|
+
```
|
|
180
|
+
|
|
181
|
+
**Step 2: Install Zoom using apt**
|
|
182
|
+
|
|
183
|
+
```bash
|
|
184
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
|
|
185
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y /tmp/zoom_amd64.deb
|
|
186
|
+
```
|
|
187
|
+
|
|
188
|
+
The `DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive` environment variable prevents any interactive prompts during installation.
|
|
189
|
+
|
|
190
|
+
**Step 3: Clean up the downloaded file**
|
|
191
|
+
|
|
192
|
+
```bash
|
|
193
|
+
rm /tmp/zoom_amd64.deb
|
|
194
|
+
```
|
|
195
|
+
|
|
196
|
+
After installation, launch Zoom:
|
|
197
|
+
|
|
198
|
+
```bash
|
|
199
|
+
zoom &
|
|
200
|
+
```
|
|
201
|
+
|
|
202
|
+
The ampersand (`&`) runs Zoom in the background, freeing your terminal.
|
|
203
|
+
|
|
204
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
205
|
+
|
|
206
|
+
Confirm the installation succeeded:
|
|
207
|
+
|
|
208
|
+
```bash
|
|
209
|
+
dpkg -l | grep zoom
|
|
210
|
+
```
|
|
211
|
+
|
|
212
|
+
Expected output (version may vary):
|
|
213
|
+
|
|
214
|
+
```
|
|
215
|
+
ii zoom 6.7.2.72191 amd64 Zoom Cloud Meetings
|
|
216
|
+
```
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
Verify Zoom launches correctly:
|
|
219
|
+
|
|
220
|
+
```bash
|
|
221
|
+
zoom &
|
|
222
|
+
```
|
|
223
|
+
|
|
224
|
+
The Zoom window should appear within a few seconds.
|
|
225
|
+
|
|
226
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
227
|
+
|
|
228
|
+
**Problem**: Dependency errors during installation
|
|
229
|
+
|
|
230
|
+
**Solution**: Fix broken dependencies and retry:
|
|
231
|
+
|
|
232
|
+
```bash
|
|
233
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get --fix-broken install -y
|
|
234
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y /tmp/zoom_amd64.deb
|
|
235
|
+
```
|
|
236
|
+
|
|
237
|
+
**Problem**: Missing library errors when launching Zoom
|
|
238
|
+
|
|
239
|
+
**Solution**: Install common dependencies:
|
|
240
|
+
|
|
241
|
+
```bash
|
|
242
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y libgl1-mesa-glx libegl1-mesa libxcb-xtest0 libxcb-xinerama0
|
|
243
|
+
```
|
|
244
|
+
|
|
245
|
+
**Problem**: Zoom fails to launch with GPU/rendering errors
|
|
246
|

248
|
+
|
|
249
|
+
```bash
|
|
250
|
+
zoom --disable-gpu &
|
|
251
|
+
```
|
|
252
|
+
|
|
253
|
+
**Problem**: Screen sharing does not work on Wayland
|
|
254
|
+
|
|
255
|
+
**Solution**: Screen sharing has limited support on Wayland. Log out and log back in using an X11 session for full screen sharing functionality, or install PipeWire for Wayland screen sharing support.

### Raspberry Pi OS (ARM)
|
|
260
|
+
|
|
261
|
+
#### Platform Limitation
|
|
262
|
+
|
|
263
|
+
**Zoom does not provide native ARM packages.** The official Zoom desktop application is only available for x86_64 architecture. Raspberry Pi devices use ARM processors, which are not directly supported.
|
|
264
|
+
|
|
265
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
- Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit recommended) - Bookworm or Bullseye
|
|
268
|
+
- Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 with at least 4 GB RAM (recommended for video calls)
|
|
269
|
+
- sudo privileges
|
|
270
|
+
- Web browser (Chromium recommended)
|
|
271
|
+
|
|
272
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
273
|
+
|
|
274
|
+
**Use the Zoom Web Application**
|
|
275
|
+
|
|
276
|
+
The recommended approach for Raspberry Pi is to use Zoom through the web browser:
|
|
277
|
+
|
|
278
|
+
```bash
|
|
279
|
+
# Ensure Chromium is installed
|
|
280
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
|
|
281
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y chromium-browser
|
|
282
|
+
|
|
283
|
+
# Launch Zoom web application
|
|
284
|
+
chromium-browser --app=https://zoom.us/wc &
|
|
285
|
+
```
|
|
286
|
+
|
|
287
|
+
The `--app` flag launches Chromium in application mode, providing a cleaner, app-like experience without browser chrome.
|
|
288
|
+
|
|
289
|
+
**Create a Desktop Shortcut**
|
|
290
|
+
|
|
291
|
+
For easier access, create a desktop shortcut:
|
|
292
|
+
|
|
293
|
+
```bash
|
|
294
|
+
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/applications
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
cat > ~/.local/share/applications/zoom-web.desktop << 'EOF'
|
|
297
|
+
[Desktop Entry]
|
|
298
|
+
Name=Zoom
|
|
299
|
+
Comment=Video Conferencing via Web
|
|
300
|
+
Exec=chromium-browser --app=https://zoom.us/wc
|
|
301
|
+
Icon=web-browser
|
|
302
|
+
Terminal=false
|
|
303
|
+
Type=Application
|
|
304
|
+
Categories=Network;VideoConference;
|
|
305
|
+
EOF
|
|
306
|
+
```
|
|
307
|
+
|
|
308
|
+
**Alternative: Using Box64 Emulation (Advanced)**
|
|
309
|
+
|
|
310
|
+
For users who need the native client features, Box64 can emulate the x86_64 Zoom client on 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS. This method is resource-intensive and may have performance issues:
|
|
311
|
+
|
|
312
|
+
```bash
|
|
313
|
+
# Install Box64 (requires 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS)
|
|
314
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
|
|
315
|
+
sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y git build-essential cmake
|
|
316
|
+
|
|
317
|
+
git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64.git /tmp/box64
|
|
318
|
+
cd /tmp/box64 && mkdir build && cd build
|
|
319
|
+
cmake .. -DRPI4ARM64=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
|
|
320
|
+
make -j$(nproc)
|
|
321
|
+
sudo make install
|
|
322
|
+
sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt
|
|
323
|
+
|
|
324
|
+
# Download x86_64 Zoom client
|
|
325
|
+
wget -q https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_x86_64.rpm -O /tmp/zoom.rpm
|
|
326
|
+
cd /tmp && rpm2cpio zoom.rpm | cpio -idmv
|
|
327
|
+
```
|
|
328
|
+
|
|
329
|
+
**Note**: Box64 emulation may have audio issues and reduced video performance. The web application is recommended for most users.
|
|
330
|
+
|
|
331
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
332
|
+
|
|
333
|
+
For web application approach, verify Chromium can access Zoom:
|
|
334
|
+
|
|
335
|
+
```bash
|
|
336
|
+
chromium-browser --app=https://zoom.us/wc &
|
|
337
|
+
```
|
|
338
|
+
|
|
339
|
+
The Zoom web client should load and prompt you to join or sign in.
|
|
340
|
+
|
|
341
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
342
|
+
|
|
343
|
+
**Problem**: Web application is slow or unresponsive
|
|
344
|
+
|
|
345
|
+
**Solution**: Raspberry Pi has limited resources. For better performance:
|
|
346
|
+
- Use a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 with at least 4 GB RAM
|
|
347
|
+
- Close other applications while using Zoom
|
|
348
|
+
- Disable video if experiencing lag
|
|
349
|
+
- Use the audio-only option for calls
|
|
350
|
+
|
|
351
|
+
**Problem**: Cannot receive notifications from web application
|
|
352
|
+
|
|
353
|
+
**Solution**: Web notifications require browser permission. When Zoom prompts for notification permission, click "Allow". Ensure your desktop environment supports web notifications.
|
|
354
|
+
|
|
355
|
+
**Problem**: Camera or microphone not detected
|
|
356
|
+
|
|
357
|
+
**Solution**: Ensure your user is in the video and audio groups:
|
|
358
|
+
|
|
359
|
+
```bash
|
|
360
|
+
sudo usermod -aG video,audio $USER
|
|
361
|
+
```
|
|
362
|
+
|
|
363
|
+
Log out and log back in for changes to take effect.
|
|
364
|
+
|
|
365
|
+
**Problem**: Box64 emulation crashes or has no audio
|
|
366
|
+
|
|
367
|
+
**Solution**: Box64 support for Zoom is experimental. Use the web application for a more stable experience.

### Amazon Linux/RHEL (DNF/YUM)
|
|
372
|
+
|
|
373
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
374
|
+
|
|
375
|
+
- Amazon Linux 2023, Amazon Linux 2, RHEL 8/9, or Fedora (64-bit x86_64)
|
|
376
|
+
- sudo privileges
|
|
377
|
+
- Graphical desktop environment (required for Zoom GUI)
|
|
378
|
+
- At least 500 MB free disk space
|
|
379
|
+
|
|
380
|
+
**Important**: Amazon Linux EC2 instances typically run headless (no GUI). If you are running a headless server, use the Zoom web application at https://zoom.us/wc or the Zoom API for automation.
|
|
381
|
+
|
|
382
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
383
|
+
|
|
384
|
+
**Step 1: Import the GPG key**
|
|
385
|
+
|
|
386
|
+
```bash
|
|
387
|
+
sudo rpm --import https://zoom.us/linux/download/pubkey?version=6-3-10
|
|
388
|
+
```
|
|
389
|
+
|
|
390
|
+
**Step 2: Download and install Zoom**
|
|
391
|
+
|
|
392
|
+
For Amazon Linux 2023, RHEL 8/9, and Fedora (using dnf):
|
|
393
|
+
|
|
394
|
+
```bash
|
|
395
|
+
sudo dnf install -y https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_x86_64.rpm
|
|
396
|
+
```
|
|
397
|
+
|
|
398
|
+
For Amazon Linux 2 (using yum):
|
|
399
|
+
|
|
400
|
+
```bash
|
|
401
|
+
sudo yum install -y https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_x86_64.rpm
|
|
402
|
+
```
|
|
403
|
+
|
|
404
|
+
DNF and YUM can install directly from a URL, which downloads and installs the package in a single command. The `-y` flag automatically confirms the installation.
|
|
405
|
+
|
|
406
|
+
After installation, launch Zoom:
|
|
407
|
+
|
|
408
|
+
```bash
|
|
409
|
+
zoom &
|
|
410
|
+
```
|
|
411
|
+
|
|
412
|
+

+
rpm -qa | grep zoom
|
|
418
|
+
```
|
|
419
|
+
|
|
420
|
+
Expected output (version may vary):
|
|
421
|
+
|
|
422
|
+
```
|
|
423
|
+
zoom-6.7.2.72191-1.x86_64
|
|
424
|
+
```
|
|
425
|
+
|
|
426
|
+
Verify Zoom can launch (requires graphical environment):
|
|
427
|
+
|
|
428
|
+
```bash
|
|
429
|
+
zoom &
|
|
430
|
+
```
|
|
431
|
+
|
|
432
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
433
|
+
|
|
434
|
+
**Problem**: GPG key import fails
|
|
435
|
+
|
|
436
|
+
**Solution**: Ensure curl is installed and retry:
|
|
437
|
+
|
|
438
|
+
```bash
|
|
439
|
+
sudo dnf install -y curl ca-certificates
|
|
440
|
+
sudo rpm --import https://zoom.us/linux/download/pubkey?version=6-3-10
|
|
441
|
+
```
|
|
442
|
+
|
|
443
|
+
**Problem**: Dependency errors during installation
|
|
444
|
+
|
|
445
|
+
**Solution**: Update system packages first, then retry:
|
|
446
|
+
|
|
447
|
+
```bash
|
|
448
|
+
sudo dnf update -y
|
|
449
|
+
sudo dnf install -y https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_x86_64.rpm
|
|
450
|
+
```
|
|
451
|
+
|
|
452
|
+
**Problem**: Zoom fails to launch with display errors
|
|
453
|
+
|
|
454
|
+
**Solution**: Zoom requires a graphical environment. For headless servers:
|
|
455
|
+
- Use X11 forwarding with SSH: `ssh -X user@server` then run `zoom`
|
|
456
|
+
- Use VNC or RDP to connect to a desktop session
|
|
457
|
+
- Use the Zoom web application at https://zoom.us/wc
|
|
458
|
+
|
|
459
|
+
**Problem**: libxcb errors when launching
|
|
460
|
+
|
|
461
|
+
**Solution**: Install required X11 libraries:
|
|
462
|
+
|
|
463
|
+
```bash
|
|
464
|
+
sudo dnf install -y libxcb libxcb-xinerama xcb-util-image xcb-util-keysyms
|
|
465
|
+
```

### Windows (Chocolatey)
|
|
470
|
+
|
|
471
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
472
|
+
|
|
473
|
+
- Windows 10 version 1903 or later, or Windows 11 (64-bit)
|
|
474
|
+
- At least 500 MB free disk space
|
|
475
|
+
- Administrator PowerShell or Command Prompt
|
|
476
|
+
- Chocolatey package manager installed
|
|
477
|
+
|
|
478
|
+
If Chocolatey is not installed, install it first by running this command in an Administrator PowerShell:
|
|
479
|
+
|
|
480
|
+
```powershell
|
|
481
|
+
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))
|
|
482
|
+
```
|
|
483
|
+
|
|
484
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
485
|
+
|
|
486
|
+
Run the following command in an Administrator PowerShell or Command Prompt:
|
|
487
|
+
|
|
488
|
+
```powershell
|
|
489
|
+
choco install zoom -y
|
|
490
|
+
```
|
|
491
|
+
|
|
492
|
+
The `-y` flag automatically confirms all prompts, enabling fully non-interactive installation. Chocolatey uses silent install arguments (`/quiet /qn /norestart`) by default.
|
|
493
|
+
|
|
494
|
+
**Optional Parameters**
|
|
495
|
+
|
|
496
|
+
Customize the installation with package parameters:
|
|
497
|
+
|
|
498
|
+
```powershell
|
|
499
|
+
choco install zoom -y --params="'/NoDesktopShortcut /NoAutoUpdate'"
|
|
500
|
+
```
|
|
501
|
+
|
|
502
|
+
Available parameters:
|
|
503
|
+
- `/DisableRestartManager` - Wait until current meetings conclude before installing
|
|
504
|
+
- `/NoAutoUpdate` - Remove the "Check for Updates" option from the client
|
|
505
|
+
- `/NoDesktopShortcut` - Prevent desktop shortcut creation
|
|
506
|
+
- `/NoInstallIfRunning` - Cancel installation if Zoom is currently active
|
|
507
|
+
- `/SilentStart` - Launch client in system tray after reboot
|
|
508
|
+
|
|
509
|
+
After installation, Zoom can be launched from the Start Menu or via command line:
|
|
510
|
+
|
|
511
|
+
```powershell
|
|
512
|
+
Start-Process zoom
|
|
513
|
+
```
|
|
514
|
+
|
|
515
|
+
**Note**: On first launch, Zoom will prompt you to sign in or join a meeting.
|
|
516
|
+
|
|
517
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
518
|
+
|
|
519
|
+
Open a new Command Prompt or PowerShell window, then verify Zoom is installed:
|
|
520
|
+
|
|
521
|
+
```powershell
|
|
522
|
+
choco list zoom
|
|
523
|
+
```
|
|
524
|
+
|
|
525
|
+
Expected output (version may vary):
|
|
526
|
+
|
|
527
|
+
```
|
|
528
|
+
zoom 6.6.11.23272
|
|
529
|
+
1 packages installed.
|
|
530
|
+
```
|
|
531
|
+
|
|
532
|
+
Launch Zoom to verify it opens correctly:
|
|
533
|
+
|
|
534
|
+
```powershell
|
|
535
|
+
Start-Process zoom
|
|
536
|
+
```
|
|
537
|
+
|
|
538
|
+
The application should launch and display the sign-in or join screen.
|
|
539
|
+
|
|
540
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
541
|
+
|
|
542
|
+
**Problem**: `choco: command not found` or `'choco' is not recognized`
|
|
543
|
+
|
|
544
|
+
**Solution**: Chocolatey is not installed or not in PATH. Install Chocolatey first (see Prerequisites), then open a new terminal window.
|
|
545
|
+
|
|
546
|
+
**Problem**: Installation fails with permission errors
|
|
547
|
+
|
|
548
|
+
**Solution**: Run PowerShell as Administrator. Right-click PowerShell in the Start Menu and select "Run as administrator".
|
|
549
|
+
|
|
550
|
+
**Problem**: Zoom fails to launch after installation
|
|
551
|
+
|
|
552
|
+
**Solution**: Restart your computer to ensure all components are properly registered, then try launching again.
|
|
553
|
+
|
|
554
|
+
**Problem**: Need to update Zoom
|
|
555
|
+
|
|
556
|
+
**Solution**: Run the upgrade command:
|
|
557
|
+
|
|
558
|
+
```powershell
|
|
559
|
+
choco upgrade zoom -y
|
|
560
|
+
```
|
|
561
|

### WSL (Ubuntu)
|
|
565
|
+
|
|
566
|
+
#### Platform Approach
|
|
567
|
+
|
|
568
|
+
**Zoom is installed on the Windows host, not within WSL.** While WSL with WSLg (GUI support) can technically run Linux GUI applications, the recommended approach is to install Zoom on Windows and access it from WSL.
|
|
569
|
+
|
|
570
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
571
|
+
|
|
572
|
+
- Windows 10 version 2004 or higher, or Windows 11
|
|
573
|
+
- WSL 2 enabled with Ubuntu distribution installed
|
|
574
|
+
- Administrator access on Windows for Zoom installation
|
|
575
|
+
|
|
576
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
577
|
+
|
|
578
|
+
**Step 1: Install Zoom on Windows**
|
|
579
|
+
|
|
580
|
+
From a Windows Administrator PowerShell:
|
|
581
|
+
|
|
582
|
+
```powershell
|
|
583
|
+
choco install zoom -y
|
|
584
|
+
```
|
|
585
|
+
|
|
586
|
+
**Step 2: Access Zoom from WSL**
|
|
587
|
+
|
|
588
|
+
From within your WSL terminal, you can launch Windows Zoom:
|
|
589
|
+
|
|
590
|
+
```bash
|
|
591
|
+
# Launch Zoom using Windows executable
|
|
592
|
+
cmd.exe /c start zoom
|
|
593
|
+
```
|
|
594
|
+
|
|
595
|
+
This command uses Windows interoperability to launch the Zoom application installed on the Windows host.
|
|
596
|
+
|
|
597
|
+
**Alternative: Access Zoom via browser from WSL**
|
|
598
|
+
|
|
599
|
+
If you prefer browser-based access:
|
|
600
|
+
|
|
601
|
+
```bash
|
|
602
|
+
# Open Zoom web client in default Windows browser
|
|
603
|
+
cmd.exe /c start https://zoom.us/wc
|
|
604
|
+
```
|
|
605
|
+
|
|
606
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
607
|
+
|
|
608
|
+
From WSL, verify you can launch Windows Zoom:
|
|
609
|
+
|
|
610
|
+
```bash
|
|
611
|
+
cmd.exe /c start zoom
|
|
612
|
+
```
|
|
613
|
+
|
|
614
|
+
Zoom should open in a new window on the Windows desktop.
|
|
615
|
+
|
|
616
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
617
|
+
|
|
618
|
+
**Problem**: Cannot launch Windows Zoom from WSL
|
|
619
|
+
|
|
620
|
+
**Solution**: Ensure Zoom is installed on Windows first. Run `choco list zoom` in a Windows PowerShell to verify installation.
|
|
621
|
+
|
|
622
|
+
**Problem**: "start: command not found"
|
|
623
|
+
|
|
624
|
+
**Solution**: Use the full Windows command syntax:
|
|
625
|
+
|
|
626
|
+
```bash
|
|
627
|
+
cmd.exe /c start zoom
|
|
628
|
+
```
|
|
629
|
+
|
|
630
|
+
**Problem**: Need to use Zoom commands in WSL scripts
|
|
631
|
+
|
|
632
|
+
**Solution**: Create a helper alias in your `~/.bashrc`:
|
|
633
|
+
|
|
634
|
+
```bash
|
|
635
|
+
echo 'alias zoom="cmd.exe /c start zoom"' >> ~/.bashrc
|
|
636
|
+
source ~/.bashrc
|
|
637
|
+
```
|
|
638
|
+
|
|
639
|
+
Then simply run `zoom` from your WSL terminal.
|
|
640

### Git Bash (Windows Installation)
|
|
644
|
+
|
|
645
|
+
#### Prerequisites
|
|
646
|
+
|
|
647
|
+
- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit)
|
|
648
|
+
- Git Bash installed (comes with Git for Windows)
|
|
649
|
+
- Administrator access for Zoom installation
|
|
650
|
+
|
|
651
|
+
#### Installation Steps
|
|
652
|
+
|
|
653
|
+
Git Bash runs on Windows, so Zoom is installed on the Windows host and accessible from Git Bash.
|
|
654
|
+
|
|
655
|
+
**Step 1: Install Zoom on Windows**
|
|
656
|
+
|
|
657
|
+
From an Administrator Command Prompt or PowerShell (not Git Bash):
|
|
658
|
+
|
|
659
|
+
```powershell
|
|
660
|
+
choco install zoom -y
|
|
661
|
+
```
|
|
662
|
+
|
|
663
|
+
**Step 2: Access Zoom from Git Bash**
|
|
664
|
+
|
|
665
|
+
After installation, Zoom can be launched from Git Bash:
|
|
666
|
+
|
|
667
|
+
```bash
|
|
668
|
+
start zoom
|
|
669
|
+
```
|
|
670
|
+
|
|
671
|
+
Or use the explicit command form:
|
|
672
|
+
|
|
673
|
+
```bash
|
|
674
|
+
cmd //c "start zoom"
|
|
675
|
+
```
|
|
676
|
+
|
|
677
|
+
#### Verification
|
|
678
|
+
|
|
679
|
+
From Git Bash, verify Zoom can be launched:
|
|
680
|
+
|
|
681
|
+
```bash
|
|
682
|
+
start zoom
|
|
683
|
+
```
|
|
684
|
+
|
|
685
|
+
Zoom should open in a new window.
|
|
686
|
+
|
|
687
|
+
#### Troubleshooting
|
|
688
|
+
|
|
689
|
+
**Problem**: `start: command not found`
|
|
690
|
+
|
|
691
|
+
**Solution**: Use the Windows-style command:
|
|
692
|
+
|
|
693
|
+
```bash
|
|
694
|
+
cmd //c "start zoom"
|
|
695
|
+
```
|
|
696
|
+
|
|
697
|
+
**Problem**: Zoom does not launch
|
|
698
|
+
|
|
699
|
+
**Solution**: Ensure Zoom is installed on Windows. Open a Windows Command Prompt and verify:
|
|
700
|
+
|
|
701
|
+
```cmd
|
|
702
|
+
choco list zoom
|
|
703
|
+
```
|
|
704
|
+
|
|
705
|
+
If not installed, install it from an Administrator PowerShell first.
|
|
706
|
+
|
|
707
|
+
**Problem**: Need to use Zoom in scripts
|
|
708
|
+
|
|
709
|
+
**Solution**: For scripting, use the Windows command wrapper:
|
|
710
|
+
|
|
711
|
+
```bash
|
|
712
|
+
#!/bin/bash
|
|
713
|
+
# Launch Zoom silently
|
|
714
|
+
cmd //c "start /min zoom" 2>/dev/null
|
|
715
|
+
```
|
|
716
|
+
|
|
717
|
+
---
|
|
718
|
+
|
|
719
|
+
## Post-Installation Configuration
|
|
720
|
+
|
|
