Enabling Start Zoom when I start Windows

You can choose to enable the setting, Auto-start Zoom Workplace, if you use the Zoom desktop app frequently. This setting opens and displays the Zoom desktop app when Windows starts. This makes the startup process more convenient and accessible by having the desktop app automatically launch when your computer boots up.

You can also choose to enable Start silently, which opens the Zoom desktop app when Windows starts but keeps it minimized in the system tray. This is useful if you want to focus on other tasks and have the Zoom desktop app ready in the background.
