Powerpoint: Activate and deactivate the add-in - how it works

Add-ins can cause problems and delay the start of PowerPoint. We'll show you how to enable and disable individual add-ins.

Turn add-ins on and off in PowerPoint

1. Start PowerPoint and click the "File" tab in the top left.
2. If you then select the "Options" at the bottom left, another window will open.
3. If you switch to the "Add-Ins" in the menu on the left, you will find all available Add-Ins here.
4. Select a desired category at the bottom under "Manage" and click on the "Go" button.
5. Here you can now switch individual add-ins on and off. Your changes are saved with the "OK" button.
