Hi all, sorry for off-top, need some advice! I have Windows 7 now, my company will do a big operating system update to Windows 10. I do a lot of my tasks in Office - Powerpoint and use standard Templates. I read on Twitter of Microsoft that they will be redesigned all Office, include Powerpoint Templates, some official resource (don't remember what) wrote, that new templates you could here -http://www.poweredtemplate.com/ppt-powerpoint-design-templates.html, is it true? If it is, how can I add old templates in Office 365?

It's simple enough to do. PowerPoint templates are saved as .potx files. That's not changed for years that I know off, and I've been working in IT support for years. So you can copy old templates over so that they work in the updated version if certain ones you use aren't included. Probably best to make a copy of them onto a flash drive or shared drive before the upgrade.

Template files can be found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates
And depending on what version of office you're currently using there'll be another folder containing templates for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.
