I have regularly imported SVG files into powerpoint and converted them to shapes that are then editable in previous versions of powerpoint. However, after updating to version 2511 (powerpoint 2025/2026) this feature is no longer visible in the top left corner of the graphics format menu or when I right click on the graphic. Is this feature still available? Is there a new way of accessing it?
I'm not seeing any such issue in PowerPoint Version 2511 (Build 19426.20218 Click-to-Run). SVGs ungroup as always.
To fix the error in your installation, please run an Office Repair. The Online Repair option is more thorough.
Hi John -- thanks for your help on the various threads. I tried running the online repair and still can't ungroup my .svg files (the group option is visible but greyed out and no "convert to shape" buttons appear like they had in the past). Any ideas for other troubleshooting?
Do you see this with every SVG? PowerPoint icons are SVG format, can you ungroup one of them?
The issue was that my office was running the microsoft install from 2016 and needed to be updated to microsoft 365. I can now view the convert to shape button as I did before. Thank you all for the troubleshooting help!

You're welcome! If you see similar reports upvote them.
Seems the feature was removed in PowerPoint 2511+
I would suggest to submit a feedback directly inside PowerPoint
This routes feedback straight to the PowerPoint product team.
Steps
This is the highest-priority channel internally.
Thank you for the note! I have submitted the above as feedback.
Kimberly, the feature has not been removed. I've tested in 2511 and it's working fine.
