How to install the Zoom desktop client
- Visit the Zoom download page.
- If your system is 64-bit, click the blue "Download" button.
- If your system is 32-bit, click the blue "Download 32-bit client" link directly below the 64-bit option.
- Once "Zoominstaller.exe" has been downloaded, click and run the installer.
- Zoom will automatically open once it has finished installing. "Join meeting" allows one to join a meeting without a Zoom account. "Sign in" allows for one to sign into an existing Zoom account.
