Unstable Microsoft webcam when using Zoom on Mac mini

I am using a Microsoft webcam with my MacMini. Worked well till recently. Video has become unstable when on Zoom. Zoom drivers are up to date. Mac mini latest updates. No clues as to corrective solution.

Have you run Disk Utility's Disk First Aid on all connected drives?


In Disk Utility>View, select Show all Devices, highlight the top left entry.


Run Disk First Aid on all items in the left panel, from top down.


Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?


We need to see what all is running, a report from this will not display any personal info...
