Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 : Adding Password Protection to a Presentation

8/12/2011 6:15:11 PM
You can assign a password and other security options so that only those who know the password can open the presentation, or to protect the integrity of your presentation as it moves from person to person. At times, you will want the information to be used but not changed; at other times, you will want only specific people to be able to view the presentation. Setting a presentation as read-only is useful when you want a presentation, such as a company-wide bulletin, to be distributed and read, but not changed. Password protection takes effect the next time you open the presentation.

Add Password Protection to a Presentation

Open the presentation you want to protect.

Click the File tab, and then click Save As.

Click Tools, and then click General Options.

Type a password in the Password To Open box (encrypted) or the Password To Modify box (not encrypted).

Important

It’s critical that you remember your password. If you forget your password, Microsoft can’t retrieve it.

Select or clear the Remove automatically created personal information from this file on save check box.

Personal information includes author, title, subject, manager, company, and other hidden data, such as invisible content, off-slide content, reviewer’s names, notes, and custom XML Data.

Click OK.

Type your password again.

Click OK.

Click Save, and then click Yes to replace existing presentation.

For Your Information: Using a Strong Password

Hackers identify passwords as strong or weak. A strong password is a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols, such as Grea8t!, while a weak one doesn’t use different character types, such as Hannah1. Be sure to write down your passwords and place them in a different location.


Open a Presentation with Password Protection

Click the File tab, click Open, navigate to a presentation with password protection, and then click Open.

Click Read Only if you do not wish to modify the presentation, or type the password in the Password dialog box.

Click OK.

Change or Remove the Password Protection

Click the File tab, click Open, navigate to a presentation with password protection, and then click Open.

Type the password in the Password dialog box, and then click OK.

Click the File tab, click Save As, click Tools, and then click General Options.

Select the contents in the Password To Modify box or the Password To Open box.

Choose the option you want.

  • Change password. Type a new password, click OK, and then retype your password.

  • Delete password. Press Delete.

Click OK.

Click Save, and then click Yes to replace existing presentation.
