Really strange question, huh? Mostly people will ask you how to keep the sound in PowerPoint when playing on another computer or something. But as someone asked, it is necessary to find out whether there are ways to mute video in PowerPoint presentation. The answer is yes. And I find two ways for you to make a video mute in a PowerPoint presentation.
1. Directly in PowerPoint
Open your PowerPoint file with Microsoft PowerPoint, click "Insert" > "Video" > "Video from File" to insert the video to PowerPoint slide.
Select the inserted video and you will see a new "Playback" tab on the ribbon. Click it and find "Volume" below. Set the volume of the video as "Mute" and the video will have no voice when you play it next time.
You can mute only one object a time with this method, like one song or one video. If you want to mute all the audio and video clips in the PowerPoint file, the next method will be extremely helpful.
2. Convert to video
