In this tutorial, I will guide to you how to record a powerpoint presentation. If you are using older versions of Office, like 2016 and below, would you like to know what’s interesting about the newer versions that Office released more recently? There are quite a lot. Temporarily ignoring the improvements about the theme, interface, etc., we come to some extremely new features, one of which I want to introduce today is Recording.
Let’s dig into the article of how to record a presentation on PowerPoint.

I. Enable Recording tab

Like Developer – if you remember what it is – the Recording tab will not be shown in the menu bar at first hand, so you must bring it out to the ribbon.
Now go to File, then Options. Select Customize Ribbon, scroll this menu down and you will find the Recording box, tick on it then click OK.

IV. Turn off timing/narration

To do this, go to tab Slide Show. You uncheck at the two boxes Play Narrations and Use Timings to turn both them off, or just one, depends on you.

Beside from PowerPoint itself, you can also use a third-party application that helps you record everything that happens on the screen. And maybe, you would like to convert PowerPoint file to video too, and luckily, we have an article about it. So, the choice is yours.

CONCLUSION

So, I have finished showing you how to record a presentation on PowerPoint. If you still stick with the old version, but also want to record, how about upgrade the version now? It’s not that the older version cannot make a record, but with all the newly added feature, I would recommend you upgrade right away! The functions are many and still waiting to welcome you.
And today’s article will end here. Hope you had some useful time, thank you and see you again.
