You can delete a single slide or a group of slides.

Here are ways to delete slides:
  • To delete a slide, select the slide in the slide navigator and press the Delete key. You can hold down the Shift key while clicking to select multiple slides to delete.

    If you delete the first slide in a group (see Grouping Slides) while the subordinate slides (children) are visible in the slide navigator, the children are moved up by one level.

  • To delete a slide and all its children, hide them (click the arrow to the left of the top slide) and press the Delete key.

If you accidentally delete slides, you can recover them immediately by choosing Edit > Undo Delete.

You can also skip slides if you want to leave them out of your presentation but don’t want to delete them entirely from your document. For more information, see Skipping Slides.
