1. Insert the photo that you want to use. Let’s say we want to keep the image of the phone in the middle.

2. Click on Picture Format

3. Over the left-hand side, select the Remove Background

(Also see: Turning Pandemic Uncertainty Into Business Success?)

4. You have the option to “Mark Areas to Keep” and “Mark Areas to Remove”.

In this case, we’ll click on mark areas to keep. We could highlight the section of the photo that we wanted to remove.

5. If satisfied with the results, click on Keep Changes.

Easy peasy, right?

That is how you can easily remove the photo background in MS PowerPoint.
