If you frequently use the Zoom desktop client, you can enable the setting, Start Zoom whenever I turn on my computer, if you wish. If this feature is selected, the Zoom desktop client opens and displays when you start your computer. As a result, your computer will automatically launch the desktop client every time your computer boots up, making the startup process more convenient and accessible for you.

The Silently start Zoom when I start Windows option, available when Zoom starts automatically when Windows starts, keeps the client minimized in the taskbar and opens the Zoom desktop client silently when Windows starts. In the future, this may be useful as an option if you wish to use the Zoom desktop client while you do other things.
