Inserting a hyperlink in a PowerPoint presentation is great for quick access to external resources relevant to your content. However, the underline that comes with it may distract the audience from the message of the slide. Here’s how to remove it.
Removing the Underline From Hyperlink Text
While PowerPoint doesn’t have a specific option for removing the underline from hyperlink text, there’s a very simple workaround. What we’re going to do is remove the link from the text, place an invisible shape over that text, and then add the link to that shape.
Go ahead and open your presentation, move to the slide that contains the underlined hyperlink text, and locate that text.
Right-click the text and select “Remove Link” from the list of options.
Next, head over to the “Insert” tab and click the “Shapes” button.
