Using Presenter view is a great way to view your presentation with speaker notes on one computer (your laptop, for example), while only the slides themselves appear on the screen that your audience sees (like a larger screen you're projecting to).
If you're using a newer version of PowerPoint, just connect the monitors and PowerPoint automatically sets up Presenter View for you.
If Presenter view appears on the wrong screen, you can swap the display quickly .
Turn off Presenter view if you prefer not to use it.
On the Slide Show tab, in the Start Slide Show group, select From Beginning .
To move to the previous or next slide, select Previous or Next .
To view all the slides in your presentation, select See all slides .
Tip: You’ll see thumbnails of all the slides in your presentation (as shown below), making it easy to jump to a specific slide in the show.
To view a detail in your slide up close, select Zoom into slide , and then point to the part you want to see.
For more details on zooming in, see Zoom in to part of a slide .
To point to or write on your slides as you present, select Pen and laser pointer tools .
Press the Esc key when you want to turn off the pen, laser pointer, or highlighter.
To hide or unhide the current slide in your presentation, select Black or unblack slide show .
You can use PowerPoint on your smartphone as a remote control to run your presentation and view your speaker notes. See Using a laser pointer on your smartphone when presenting in PowerPoint for more information, including a brief video.
To manually determine which screen shows your notes in Presenter view and which shows only the slides themselves, on the task bar at the top of Presenter view, select Display Settings , and then select Swap Presenter View and Slide Show .
Tip: You can add notes either while you’re presenting, directly from Presenter view, or as you’re editing your presentation. For information on how to add speaker notes to your presentation see Add speaker notes to your slides.
The notes appear in a pane on the right. If you need to add or delete something, simply click in the text box to edit it. The text wraps automatically, and a vertical scroll bar appears if necessary. You can change the size of the text in the Notes pane by using the two buttons at the lower left corner of the Notes pane:
To change the size of the panes in Presenter View, point your mouse at the vertical line that separates them, then click and drag.
Tip: If you don't need to see the current slide in Presenter View at all, and would like your notes to be larger, drag that vertical separator line all the way to the left.
If you want Presenter view turned off while you are showing your presentation to others:
On the Slide Show tab of the ribbon, clear the check box named Use Presenter View .
If you're working with a team of people to create your slide deck it may be that changes are being made to the slides right up to the last minute. Traditionally once you've started your presentation your slides wouldn't update. If you're using PowerPoint for Microsoft 365 you have the option to let your slides be updated by your team even as you're presenting so that you always have the up-to-the-minute changes.
You can turn this on by going to the Slide Show tab of the ribbon, selecting Set Up Slide Show , and checking the box for Keep slides updated .
If you've already started your presentation and you want to make sure that setting is on, you can do that from Presenter view. Select the More slide show options button (which looks like three dots) and on the menu make sure Keep Slides Updated is checked.
Using a laser pointer on your smartphone when presenting in PowerPoint
To start using Presenter view, select Slide Show > Presenter View .
To move to the previous or next slide, select the Previous or Next arrow.
To turn off the pen, laser pointer, or highlighter, press the Esc key.
To make the screen black or to un-black the screen, Press b on the keyboard.
On the Apple menu, select System Preferences .
Open the Displays app.
Click the Arrangement tab in the dialog box.
Clear the Mirror Displays check box.
By doing this process, you now have a two-monitor setup. You can present a PowerPoint slide show on one screen while having other applications open on the other screen, keeeping those other apps private to yourself.
To manually determine which screen shows your notes in Presenter view and which shows only the slides themselves, on the task bar at the top left of Presenter view, select Swap Displays .
When your computer is connected to a projector and you start Presenter View, it appears on your computer's screen, while only the slides appear on the projector screen.
The notes appear in a pane on the right:
The text wraps automatically, and a vertical scroll bar appears if necessary.
You can edit the text in the Notes pane.
You can change the size of the text in the Notes pane by using the two buttons at the lower left corner of the Notes pane:
You can adjust the size of the current slide, and notes and next slide panels, by using your mouse to grab and drag the vertical line that separates the two panels.
On the PowerPoint menu, select Preferences .
In the PowerPoint Preferences dialog box, under Output and Sharing , click Slide Show .
In the Slide Show dialog box, clear the Always start Presenter View with 2 displays check box.
Close the dialog box.
At the top of the Presentation view window, click Use Slide Show .
This button closes Presenter view. As a result, both your personal computer screen and the projector screen show the slide show.
If you're working with a team of people to create your slide deck it may be that changes are being made to the slides right up to the last minute. Traditionally once you've started your presentation your slides wouldn't update. If you're using PowerPoint for Microsoft 365 for Mac you have the option to let your slides be updated by your team even as you're presenting so that you always have the up-to-the-minute changes.

Does this also prevent reboots from Windows 10 crappy updates?
I doubt that
I generally use the “pause updates” feature the day before I give a presentation. It should stop windows doing any updates/reboots while you’re delivering a talk :)
Sadly, it seems that the presentationsettings.exe is only available on Windows 10 PRO, not on home.

Using the keyboard to utilize PowerPoint functions efficiently
PowerPoint shortcut keys help users to use the functions of PowerPoint with more efficiency. Much like Excel shortcut keys , they allow users to keep hands on the keyboard and do tasks faster. For example, Ctrl + D let users duplicate slides without having to use their mouse.
Insert a new slide:
CTRL + SHIFT + M
Duplicate the current slide:
CTRL + SHIFT + D
The following section shows a variety of shortcut keys that enables users to alter the text in PowerPoint. To use the shortcuts, first select the texts.
Select text:
Center text within a box:
Right align text within a box:
L eft align text within a box:
Make text smaller:
CTRL + SHIFT + <
Make text bigger:
CTRL + SHIFT >
Copy the formatting:
This shortcut allows the user to copy the color, size, or font of a text and apply it to another text. This can also be used for shapes.
CTRL + SHIFT + C
Paste the formatting:
CTRL + SHIFT + V
The following shortcuts allow users to alter, copy, and paste shapes with greater efficiency. To use the shortcuts, first select the shape(s).
Copy and paste shape(s):
This shortcut helps combine CTRL C, CTRL V into one step. Select the shape that you want to copy, press CTRL + SHIFT, and then click on the item and drag it into position.
CTRL + SHIFT + Drag
Copy and paste shape(s) multiple times:
This is similar to the shortcut above but is more useful when pasting the shape multiple times. After selecting the item and pressing CTRL + D, drag the copied item into position. PowerPoint will utilize the distance between the duplicate and the original item. Press CTRL + D again to duplicate the item, this time the duplicate will be spaced out the same way.
Group items together:
Grouping items allows users to move multiple items at once while keeping the spacing between the items.
Ungroup items:
This shortcut allows users to ungroup items so individual shapes can be moved. The ungrouping function also applies to the PowerPoint icons. By ungrouping the icons, users can take apart icons and redesign them.
CTRL + SHIFT + G
Start presentation mode from the first slide:
Start presentation mode from the current slide:
Jump to slide in presentation mode:
During the presentation, the user can jump to a specific slide without having to exit the presentation or use the up and down key by using the PowerPoint shortcut keys. This is useful if the slide is far from the current slide and if the user knows the slide number.
Slide number + ENTER
Making sure items are spaced out equally across a slide can be a time-consuming process. Users can use the align function that PowerPoint provides by clicking into the ribbon. A faster solution is to set the align function as a hotkey, so users can access it with a few taps on the keyboard.
To make the align function into a hotkey:
To access the hotkey, press ALT + 1
After pressing the ALT + 1, a box will appear on the side of the screen. Press the letter that associate with the alignment of choice.
