Countdown time in Powerpoint

Question

Hello

I am urgently trying to find out how to add a countdown timer to a powerpoint presentation where it will continue throughout all slides.

Imagine we have 5 slides and only 10 minutes to present. It would be wonderful to have a pop up appear with an alart tone when there is only 2 minutes to go as an example.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Hi, @Anonymous
There is no built-in countdown timer in PPT, but you can search for relevant add-ons on the Internet and insert them into the PPT, or you can also make a timer by hand.
Microsoft officially offers this method: insert-an-on-screen-timer6
