Exporting to video takes FOREVER!
The same scenario is happening to me with FOUR slides. Each has a video on the slide. The first time I saved it, it went through smoothly and quickly, but after that, it's a slow boat to China, in fact after four hours, it was barely 1/4 of the way through saving...I've restarted, removed add-ins, etc. Nothing seems to help. Do you have any suggestions for me? Kidd Wong

I've got an i5 7400 and a GTX 1080 GPU, it's taken 20 minutes to reach about 95% on a video a little under a minute long. Thing is the CPU usage isn't going above 30% and GPU usage barely reaches 10%, which is probably from Chrome anyway.
EDIT: it's finally exported and half the video is broken, what an absolute joke.

Dan_of_MarsdenThanks for your reply. There's clearly something wrong with the way this works. When, one day I'm working along famously with no problems but the next day...it's a slow boat to China! PIus, it has nothing to do with my system. My system is fine or it would be if I could avoid about 90% of the Microsoft updates. For instance, this last update now has everything downloading into a NEW download folder that I didn't create so I have to copy and paste everything I download now...nice! LOL! A couple of weeks ago after an update I had to start signing into Microsoft every time I used a document from OneDrive. There's always something... I've been using Microsoft products since their inception and there's-always-something! 🙂 Happy New Year!

Greg EdwardsThanks for the reply. I have a Toshiba with an Intel Core i7 but this just started a day ago. Before that, I was saving MP4s left and right with no issues. I'm beginning to think it might be an add-in. If that doesn't work, I'll have to reinstall 365. 😞
