    Abhijith77,

    Is this also the case in a new PPT file? If no, maybe there is only a title layout left in the master. Go to View - Master and see if the other layouts have been deleted.

    Hi Luc Sander,

    This is happening when I open a new ppt file, and once I close the file, unsave it and open it again, the issue gets resolved, but not all the time

    I also tried the reset option next to it, it works in a few instances but not everytime

    Hi,

    If the thumbnails appear in the master but not in edit mode there could be a problem with the video driver that needs to be updated.

    I remember thumbnails not showing up some years ago, the problem was usually the hardware acceleration. If you go to File - options - advanced - display section you can uncheck disable hardware acceleration...

    Add-ins can cause some trouble, so you can disable them temporarily to see if it helps.

    If all else fails, maybe you can try a repair: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/repair-an-office-application-7821d4b6-7c1d-4205-aa0e-a6b40c5bb88b?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

    Hi Abhijith77,

    I am Aster, an Independent Advisor, and I am here to help you with your problem.

    Can you click on the Layout button in the same Home tab and see if there are other layouts available for you to choose from?

    Let me know, thank you.
