[...] E: Unsupported file ./zoom_amd64.deb given on commandline
Hello!
Step 1. Open a terminal or Synaptic, at your liking. I'll assume you use the terminal, although I dislike it...
Step 2. copy and paste the following command in the CLI window:
sudo apt install gdebi-gtk -y
If it's already there, then copy/paste + Enter:
sudo gdebi-gtk
Step 3. From the GDebi
File menu, choose
Open.
Navigate using the dialog until you reach the .deb package and select it.
Step 4. Wait a few seconds for GDebi to read the package. When it is done, the grayed button
Install Package becomes available. Click on it and the installation process will start. When the installation is done, the second button,
Remove Package will become available. Close GDebi.
Step 5. Go to the Linux Lite main menu, choose
Internet and you'll see
the Zoom icon (a blue camera).
In order to use this App, you'll need to have the credentials at hand, so open the file you saved your User Name and Password, then start the Zoom application. It will ask for your credentials. Tick the "Keep me logged in" option, to avoid this step next time.
You're good to go!
I also use Zoom for courses, 1:1 coaching/consulting and webinars.
Good luck and happy conferencing!
