Hi,

About a year ago, when I used PowerPoint, I just marked text and right-clicked, and the translation function was displayed. But now I found that it was not displayed when using a MacBook, but the function was available when logging in using the desktop.How can I use the translate function?

Thank you

    What is the specific Version Number & type of License for the Office software on the Macbook as shown in PowerPoint> About PowerPoint?

    This feature is only available if you have an Office 365 subscription, or Office 2021 for Mac or 2019 for Mac, and only for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. It isn't included in Office 2016.

    Additionally, I believe Connected Experiences need to be enabled.
