My computer crashed when I tried to insert clip art - it was the only file open. Why did this happen?

RE: Computer

Hi Sally

Thank you for your question.

As there are many reasons why a computer might crash at a certain point, it is difficult to pinpoint why this might have happened. All I can recommend is making sure you save your presentation regularly in case your computer does crash. Using Ctrl + S will save changes; I would make it a habit to use this every few minutes while you are working on a presentation.

I hope this helps.

PowerPoint tip:

Make an impact with your opening

Setting a few slides on a continous loop before beginning a presentation can help to set the presentation tone for the audience and build audience anticipation and curiosity.

Once you have created your opening presentation slides, open the presentation and go to Slide Show - Set Up Show, then tick the Loop continuously until "Esc" box.

Put the presentation into slideshow view then press the Esc key when you are ready to begin your actual presentation.
