Microsoft PowerPoint is an old-line while still the most widely used presentation program. Although there’s a saying that many top communicators have already discontinued the usage of it, for general consumers, PowerPoint from MS is still the go-to pick for producing effective presentation demonstration thanks to its easy-of-use, multi-function and so forth benefits. Being available for Windows, Mac and also the web, PowerPoint is capable of creating unlimited slides with stylish template effects and transitions, enables you to flexibly control the slide timings and add external media files/ink gestures into slide, as well as empower you to do slideshow video capture.
And this article is not a beginner guide on how to use PowerPoint for slideshow making, but comes to keep an eye on PowerPower’s screen recording capability, delivering all of you an overall look at this in-app functionality and how to record PowerPoint presentation with narration and webcam as video file effortlessly.
Do All Microsoft PowerPoint Versions Have Integrated Screen Recorder?
Not exactly but most versions do support recording PowerPoint with audio.
Drawing from official support information, it’s easy to know that all desktop PowerPoint apps from Office 365, 2013-2019 version and 2010 version, both Windows and Mac ones included, have “Record Slide Show” option under Slide Show menu bar, which is designed to help user conduct any screen recording on current slide or the whole slideshow from beginning with animation timings, narrations, ink and laser pointer. And these several elements listed are selectable before you start the recording. The only thing you should take a note is that only when your software is PowerPoint 2013 later than February 16, 2015 update can you enjoy the “pen, highlighter and eraser” ink recording, because earlier versions can only save them into shapes.
Besides desktop app, PowerPoint Web service is also available for quick and instant slides creation online. But unfortunately, PowerPoint for the web doesn’t feature slide show recording currently. To grab such browser-based content, you will have to turn to third-party screen recorder, be it standalone app, extension or online tool without download or install.

Can You Use PowerPoint to Record Presentation with Webcam?
Theoretically you can, but the premise is your PowerPoint version is up-to-date and running on Windows computer, not being corrupted nor missing related files at the same time. If not, like many users complained online, the webcam button during recording mode doesn’t show up so that there’s no way for them to add facecam overlay in the slideshow corner for real-time narrating.
From Microsoft Community:
– I am working on PowerPoint 2016 and trying to set up a recording for the slides. On the support website, it seems that the webcam should automatically activate and provide additional buttons for switching it on and off. I do not get webcam footage or those buttons… (Published in 2017)
– I have been using my daughter’s computer to record lectures in PowerPoint. I no longer have the option to record and have the webcam show my face in the bottom corner. I also tried a free trial download and yet again, it’s still not working. (Published in 2020)
– Microsoft Powerpoint recording sildeshow (as video) do not work with camera and audio in macOS like Windows. It that any problem? (Published in 2020)
