A newer version of the "Zoom and Zoom plug-in for Outlook" program has been added to the Software Center which will remediate this issue.

Users who are still experiencing the issue of Zoom prompting for administrator credentials should restart their computer. Once restarted, the new version of Zoom should be installed automatically when the computer is next asleep or locked but still connected to the internet.

The latest Zoom client could also be installed manually by first uninstalling "Zoom and Zoom plug-in for Outlook" through Software Center then re-installing it.
