If you've found your way to this page, it's a clear sign that you're on the right track. This step-by-step guide aims to help you record live PowerPoint presentations using either third-party tools or Microsoft's built-in features, then export the recorded PPT presentation as a video.

Way 2. Record Live PowerPoint Presentations via MS Built-In Features

Step 1. Open the PPT file that you want to present > click Slide Show > select Record Slide Show.
