Download a cracked version found on a forum Borrow a colleague’s license and keep it Disable license check in options Use PowerPoint for the web with a free Microsoft account

PowerPoint for the web is free with a Microsoft account; it allows you to create and modify a presentation in the browser.

Send the .pptx without checking, the client will manage Rename the .pptx to .pdf and send it as is Export a PDF for reading and keep the .pptx for editing Send a screenshot of each slide

The PDF freezes the layout for distribution; the .pptx remains the editable working file.
