How to Transfer From PowerPoint to Flash Drives
Microsoft’s PowerPoint platform is commonly used to create slideshows focused on a central theme in a format conducive to presentation in front of an audience. The software also allows users to design the presentation media on a home or office computer and transfer it to a portable storage device, such as a flash drive, and utilize the presentation computer as the host playback device. Flash-drive memory capacity typically reaches as high as 8 GB, which is more than enough for the most elaborate of PowerPoint presentations.
