Full Description:
This change will switch the Microsoft AppSource Zoom for Outlook Add-In to be automatically installed for all users instead of just being available for optional installation. This is the current recommended Zoom-Outlook integration and the previous Zoom Outlook Plug-In is considered legacy software that is no longer being updated by the vendor and is expected to be end of life at some future time. We have additionally recently encountered authentication problems that appear to be associated with the legacy plug-in that have been resolved by users switching to the Microsoft AppSource Zoom for Outlook Add-In.
