sharing and unsharing power point

Hi,

My issue is sharing a power point on teams, then stop sharing to do a practical demo or show a video. When I re-share the power point it goes back to the start again. Is there any way round this?

 

Thanks

    What i did is using dual screen and just start up the powerpoint presentation and click on the presenter mode in powerpoint. Then switch back to Teams (Alt+Tab) to share the presentation. When done, stop sharing in teams. Powerpoint presentation will stay at the same slide. IF you want to present again, just share the presentation again so it will continue where you left. So basically you are not sharing the presentation (ppt) file, but just your application screen of Powerpoint.
