@Shawnlima231 The picture isn't saved as file but copied into your clipboard (computer memory). Then pasted into PowerPoint (so it's not opened either).

This is shown from 1:23 - have you seen that part? I'm sorry you couldn't use my tutorial, but thanks for your blunt feedback ;)

this video did not tell me anything. I have an older version of powerpoint and this shit was confusing, you didn't even tell us how to save the picture and how to open it powerpoint.
