If you've previously recorded a Zoom meeting, it will be stored in one of two places: On the Zoom cloud or on your computer. 

The difference is that the cloud is reserved for those who have a paid Zoom account, while those with a free account do not have access to that option. Both free and paid Zoom users can choose to save locally.

Here's how to find your Zoom recordings.
