    I've been having this issue, too. What worked for me was removing "Transitions". Highlight the slides, type in the search bar "transitions", then select "None" from the menu that pops up. Hope this helps.

    How to check this?

    Move to the slide in question, click the Transitions tab and check to see if Morph is highlighted:

    Did someone else design the slides? If so, the animations may be on the slide master.

    If you right-click on an animation in the animation pane, you should see an option “Copy Effects to Slide” that will bring the animations on the master slide to presentation level (if that’s the issue).

    I'm betting my dollar on Heather's suggestion, but if that's not it, check to see if any of your slides have a Morph transition applied. Morph can produce the *effect* of some very sophisticated animations without actually having to apply any animations at all.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your response. It is 365 for business.

    Also attaching image for reference

    When i select all objects, it is showing "none" but in actual the animation are there

    And when i just select the slide, the animation panel is greyed out but animation is still there (Star on side panel)
