A quick, simple, and cost-free tool for creating presentations and slideshows is Google Slides. And while adding and changing slides is simple, removing some of the slides from your deck that you no longer require can be confusing. However, after you figure out how, you can quickly erase slides using your phone’s mobile app or a desktop browser.
How To Delete A Slide On Google Slides On The Desktop
Locate the slide you wish to delete when your deck is open and Google Slides is open in a web browser. Press the Delete key on your keyboard after clicking the slide thumbnail in the pane on the left. The slide can also be deleted by selecting Delete from the pop-up menu when you right-click it. Holding the Shift key while selecting the first and last slide will allow you to erase numerous slides at once using the right-click menu or the Delete key.
