Zoom Outlook Plugin for Mac Stops Working

Issue

Zoom Outlook Plugin was previously installed succesfully on a Mac running Outlook 2016/2019. The functionality of the plugin is no longer available and it seems to have disappeared from the app's calendar window entirely.

Cause

Microsoft is discontinuing all support for injection-based Outlook plugins (including Zoom's) effective with their May 2021 software update. Microsoft has a support article with additional details.

  1. Quit Outlook.
  2. Uninstall the Outlook plugin by opening Finder, click on Applications,  open the ZoomOutlookPlugin folderand run the Uninstall application.
  3. Install the Zoom for Outlook add-in
  4. Re-open Outlook.
