What is the location for Powerpoint 2013 starup location

Post by diana »

I have global shared templates to be loaded for Word, Excel and Powerpoint 2013.

I place my global shared Word template in location

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\STARTUP\

The excel global shared template in location

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\XLSTART

The question is where do I place my powerpoint template to be
Does powerpoint uses Words startup directory therefore the location would be

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\STARTUP\

TIA

Have you tried:

Setting the location through -- File | Options | Trust Center | Trusted Locations (in PowerPoint)
and then copy the PowerPoint template(s) to this location.

You obviously did not come right with this post?

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

Thanks Rudi

In Powerpoint 2013, I click File, Options, Trust Center, Trust Center Settings... Trusted Locations

The default locations displayed are:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Templates\
C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates
C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Addins\
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Document Themes 15\


Note I want the global powerpoint shared template on the local hard disk and not under users profile.
So I should place my global powerpoint template in location
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Templates\

In relation to the other post, I was pulled off this project to work on other projects, and have now picked up this work again.

Thanks again Rudi :clapping:
