Can I run microsoft powerpoint with a chromebook?

As the other replies mention, a Chromebook can only run PowerPoint for the web in a browser, or PowerPoint for Android, both of which are significantly less capable than a desktop edition of PowerPoint running under Windows or macOS.

Yes. A Chromebook can run PowerPoint, but the best option depends on whether you need the full desktop app.

With those specs (12 GB RAM, MediaTek processor, ~54 GB storage), you should be fine for normal PowerPoint presentations.

PowerPoint for the web: Use PowerPoint through Microsoft 365 in the browser. This is the simplest option and works well on ChromeOS.

Android app: If your Chromebook supports Android apps, you may be able to install the PowerPoint mobile app from Google Play.

Desktop Windows PowerPoint: The traditional Windows/Mac desktop version cannot be installed natively on ChromeOS.

For creating and editing ordinary presentations, PowerPoint for the web should be more than adequate. If you need advanced features such as certain VBA/macros, add-ins, or specialized desktop functionality, you'd need access to a Windows or Mac computer.

Hello, good day and thanks for your question. I understand that you have a Chromebook and you are looking into using PowerPoint on it.

You will be able to access PowerPoint on the web via a browser and you can login with your Microsoft account.

If your Chromebook has the capacity to run Android apps then you will be able to download it from the Play Store and you will also need to login with your Microsoft account.
