Deleting local or cloud recordings in zoom App

ByCorporate Guider Home, Zoom

When you have finished processing your recordings, you will be able to delete them locally or from the cloud.

As soon as you have processed your recordings for your local or cloud storage, it is possible to delete the MP4, M4A, VTT, CC.VTT, and TXT files. If you want to delete local recordings from your computer, you can, but if you want to delete cloud recordings, you must do so via the Zoom web portal.

If a user deletes his or her cloud recordings, or an admin deletes a user’s account, what happens to those recordings? Learn more here.
