Hello,

My laptop with Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS as OS, 16 GiB RAM and 8 CPUs needs a high memory during the the meeting especially when I share my screen. Its so noisy that people can hardly hear me. I tried to close all Apps but the problem persists. I upgraded Zoom to the latest version but I m still facing the same issue.

Could you please help me? Any advice?

Thank you

Thank you Michael for your Email. I was also wondering if I was on the right place.

Could you please delete my message from this forum? I do not have the rights for that.

No worries at all!

We can go ahead and lock your post, but typically will not delete them so that Zoom users who land here after facing similar issues are able to see the correct place to go to for help. 🙂
