PowerPoint NEW Image Editing Tools Explained — Remove Background, Upscale & Edit Images Instantly!

🚀 PowerPoint just received one of its most powerful updates ever! 

Microsoft has introduced a brand‑new built‑in image editing experience, allowing you to enhance visuals without leaving PowerPoint. 

In my latest YouTube video, I walk through all the new capabilities now rolling out in Microsoft 365, including: 

 Remove background 

🧽 Erase unwanted objects 

🔄 Move elements inside an image 

🔍 Upscale low‑resolution pictures 

 Auto‑enhance lighting & contrast 

📝 Add or edit text directly on images 

All of this happens directly inside PowerPoint, making slide creation faster and more intuitive than ever. 

These features are now available on: 

💻 Windows 

🍎 Mac 

🌐 PowerPoint for the Web 

If you work with presentations daily, this update is a real productivity boost.

    Is there any way to revert this update? The new remove background function is unusable. I can no longer add sections back once the program has decided to remove the entire background so am forced to Frankenstein images together to account for this. Awful new feature. Typical AI rubbish, poorly implemented replacement for something that worked perfectly well for over a decade.
