This might be something very simple to do, but I was stumped when I needed to change and replace an existing image in Microsoft PowerPoint. I basically needed to keep the image frame design and layout the same and just change the image. I thought I’d just write the instructions down in case I forget how to do this and I hope that it may help you as well.
- Open the PowerPoint file with the image
- Click on the image you want to change and under Picture Format, you will see the Change Picture button
When the screen is minimised or if you have a smaller resolution screen, you will not see the Change Picture text and it will just display the button image then select the new picture
Here’s a video showing HOW TO CHANGE OR REPLACE A PICTURE IMAGE IN POWERPOINT
Here’s a transcript of the video:
