How to Remove the Timing in PowerPoint

PowerPoint timings can be removed quickly for efficient use of editing time.

Microsoft PowerPoint allows you to deliver effective presentations regardless of whether you are advancing your slides yourself or your presentations are available for off-line or unattended use. This is due to the timings settings in the program that determine how long it will take to present each slide and when you want the slides to transition to the next. You can also time your animation effects for the desired effect. If you want to rehearse your presentation, PowerPoint can record the timing for you so you can forgo the use of a stopwatch. Removing the timings of your slide presentation is as easy as adding them.

Instructions

1. Open your PowerPoint presentation. Select "View" from the menu, then scroll down to "Slide Sorter" to see the all of the slides.

2. Click on the slide you want to remove the timing from.

3. Select the "Slide Show" menu, then choose "Slide Transition." Click on "deselect automatically" from the advance slide tab. Click on "Apply to All" to remove the timing from all slides in your presentation. Click "Apply" to a remove the timing from a single selected slide.
