To save a PowerPoint presentation on a thumbdrive, you’ll follow a straightforward process that ensures your work is securely stored.

Steps to Save Your Presentation

Make sure your thumb drive/data-stick is already in the USB port.
Open the PowerPoint presentation you wish to save.
Navigate to File > Save As. Locate your thumb drive or data stick from the drop-down menu.
Rename your presentation if you want a different name than the one already given.
Click the Save button and then close the PowerPoint presentation.
Safely remove your hardware. Do not just pull the data stick from the USB port. Look for the small drive icon on the Taskbar (at the bottom of your monitor). Hover over it, and you will see “Safely Remove Hardware” on a PC or “Eject” on a Mac. Right-click the icon, find your thumb drive, and click “Stop.” On a Mac, you can drag the drive icon to the trash can.
Wait for the confirmation prompt informing you that it is safe to disconnect your device. Once you receive this message, you can physically remove the thumb drive from your computer.

Always double-check that the presentation has been saved successfully before removing the thumb drive.
It’s a good practice to keep a backup of important presentations in another location, such as cloud storage.
