• You can even set a self-running power point slides and let it run according to these timing, relieving us from the need to manually navigate the slides. Bear in mind that we can run into a situation where PowerPoint changes the slides before we finish, so make sure that you can deliver each slide based on your rehearsal timing.

• Select the ‘Browsed at a kiosk (full screen)’ option to setup a self-running PowerPoint presentation. Press the ‘esc’ key to stop the self-running presentation.
