What is GoTo Meeting?
GoTo Meeting is GoTo's business meeting desktop client. Windows still shows g2m.exe on many installs.
If you have never used it
If a calendar invite says GoTo Meeting, this is GoTo (formerly Citrix), not Zoom. You can often join in a browser. The Windows app is for regular hosts and attendees. A common process is g2m.exe. Zoom.exe is a different vendor.
What is it used for?
The call window for a GoTo organizer. Zoom is a different meeting grid.
GoTo screen share. Windows Game Bar is not this product.
GoTo documents webinar SKUs. That is still not Webex or Zoom.
Who is it for?
- Workplaces that never left GoTo invites
- Users who still say Citrix meeting
- Anyone comparing g2m.exe with Zoom.exe

Common problems
Old Citrix-branded shortcuts
They may still launch current GoTo. A 2012 Citrix guide can name dead paths.
People install Zoom to join a GoTo link
Wrong client. Use the GoTo join URL or the GoTo app.
Getting unstuck
Start from goto.com/meeting or the invite URL
A GoTo crack or portable is junk. support.goto.com/meeting is the vendor help.
Join in a browser if the app is blocked
GoTo documents browser join. A random g2m helper from email is the wrong file.
Quit leftover g2m.exe after hang-up
A leftover share can keep the camera or screen awake.
Alternatives
Zoom or Teams if that is the invite. Webex if the workplace standardized there instead.
