If you have Homebrew installed, you can run `brew cask zap zoomus` to get rid of all the things (as far as we know) Zoom has installed.

If you prefer to remove it manually, here’s the list of files and folders Homebrew will delete on `brew cask zap zoomus`:

Your list seems to be missing a couple of files that the Zoom uninstaller cleans up.

That's deliberate. Homebrew always runs the Zoom uninstaller first before going through the list.

Running the uninstaller is enforced by the `pkg` declaration. See also: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/a6026e0a36c22...
