How does the Install Zoom Worklet work?

This Install Zoom Worklet checks for 32 and 64-bit Zoom installations. If they’re not found, the Worklet flags the device for remediation to install the latest 32-bit or 64-bit version depending on the device's architecture.

NOTE: If 64-bit architecture is detected, the worklet will use a script block for installing the 64-bit MSI. If the installation does not succeed after 5 minutes, it will timeout and exit with an error code. The Installation log can be found under C:\ProgramData\amagent\Zoom_install.log
