Closing PPT and returning to desktop

Question

I have a training presentation that is set up in kiosk mode and saved as .ppsx (show)file. When someone finishes the training,  I need for them to be able to close the file and go back to the desktop screen so the next person is able to click on a desktop icon and re start the training. I would like to do this as simple as possible by putting a clickable link on the last slide. When the link is clicked, Powerpoint will close (ALT-F4) and return the desktop screen. I'm guessing a script is needed but thats where my Powerpoint knowledge stops. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Answer 1

If your .ppsx is started from the desktop screen, you can solve it by doing the following in your .ppsx file:

Insert a shape on the last slide. While shape is selected, click on Action on the Insert tab. Select Hyperlink to and then End Show in the drop down.
