Slide Show In A Window For PowerPoint

Have you ever found yourselves in the need to run a PowerPoint Slide Show in a separate window?

This can easily be done by adding a small button which is named Slide Show In A Window to the Quick Access Toolbar.

First of all we must select the File tab on the ribbon, and once we are in backstage view we select the command Options from the bottom of the menu. Once the PowerPoint Options window appears we select the category Quick Access Toolbar from the left of the window. After from area of the window named Choose Commands From we select the drop down menu in order to select either Commands Not In The Ribbon or All Commands.

Once selected we scroll down until we find the command Slide Show In A Window, where we select it and then press the Add button. Once we have added the command we can see it at the right of the window as shown in the image below.

Once we have added it we press the OK button to return to our presentation. We then notice next to the Quick Access Toolbar the command Slide Show In A Window as we can see in the image below.

If we have our presentation already open, we just press the command and our presentation appears in a whole separate window as we can see.

If we want to return to our presentation we just press the Escape button.
