After you've recorded a meeting, you can then delete it if you need to. This wikiHow will teach you how to delete local and cloud recordings using your computer. If you've recorded Zooms from iOS or Android, you most likely created cloud recordings, which can be deleted via a web browser.
Steps
Deleting Local Recordings
-
Open Zoom. You can find the computer client in your Start menu of Windows or Applications folder in Mac.- If you recorded meetings with your computer, you created local recordings and can only delete them using the computer client.
-
Click Meetings. It's on the left side of the window with an icon of a clock.Advertisement -
Click the Recorded tab. This will display all the recorded meetings you have. -
Click the meeting you want to delete. Once you do, it will show more options. -
Click Delete. You'll see this to the far right of the options next to an icon of an x.Advertisement
Deleting Cloud Recordings
-
Go to https://zoom.us/profile and sign in. You can use any web browser to log into your account and delete your cloud recordings. -
Click Recordings (if you're a "User"). If you're labeled as admin on your Zoom account, click Account Management > Recording Management to see all the recordings of your meetings. -
Click a meeting you want to delete. If you want to delete multiple recordings at once, you can click to check the box that's to the left of the recording's name.- You can also use the date range boxes to search for recordings within specific time frames or enter the meeting ID to find a specific recording.
