Every time I join a Zoom meeting, this pops up. (Get an app to open this 'zoommtg' link

I don't want to install the Zoom app but always join from the web browser. Can I prevent this window pop up?

I tried to set the default app for opening .zoommtg link to Google Chrome rather than Zoom app. After setting as the below screenshot, however, it still try to open Zoom Windows app when I click the 'Launch meeting' button.

    Does this answer your question? [How to configure Firefox open Zoom URLs using Zoom application](https://superuser.com/questions/1343020/how-to-configure-firefox-open-zoom-urls-using-zoom-application) – Rubén Mar 10 '23 at 01:49

  • Please review the above links carefully, if none of the above help you,please [edit] the question, share what you have tried what you have found and why it didn't meet your needs. Also add more details like name and version of the web browser that you are using and the steps tht you follow that cause the pop up to appear. – Rubén Mar 10 '23 at 01:55

    Regarding "Ruben's link didn't help because the linked article is about Linux." I don't know to what link you are referring to. The [first one](https://superuser.com/q/1343020/152004) points to a question having 5 answers. While the top answer is about configuring Firefox in Gnome the there are others for different operating systems incluing Windows. The [second link](https://superuser.com/q/1642801/152004) points a question with one answer about Chrome for Windows, more specifically suggest to edit a specific Windows registry key. – Rubén Mar 10 '23 at 10:13

Not really an answer but I can't show the image in a comment.

I don't think you can do what you are trying. Because Chrome does not know how to handle the .zoom or .zoommtg files. If you don't want that popup then (like me) you can install zoom. But then you get a different popup like this (even when clicking on a URL).

You can get rid of that by ticking the checkbox.
