How can I make my PowerPoint presentation play automatically?

You can easily set your PowerPoint presentation to play automatically by following these steps:

  1. Open your PowerPoint presentation.
  2. Go to the Slide Show tab in the top menu.
  3. Click on Set Up Slide Show.
  4. In the dialog box that appears, under Show type, select Browsed at a kiosk (full screen). This option will make your presentation play automatically from start to end.
  5. Click OK to save your settings.

With this setup, your slides will advance automatically, but you can still use your mouse click or the keyboard to navigate between slides. Remember, though, that this configuration doesn’t include automatic timing for each slide. If you want to set specific timing for each slide, you should:

  1. Go to the slide you want to set the timing for.
  2. Click on the Transitions tab.
  3. In the Timing group, under Duration, input the desired amount of time that you want the slide to appear for before advancing to the next slide.
  4. Check the box next to After and ensure the time matches your desired duration.
  5. Repeat these steps for each slide in your presentation.
  6. Remember to save your presentation to apply these changes.
