PowerPoint 2013 Taskbar Always Shows in Slideshow Mode
After this weeks update my users are noticing that the taskbar does not hide during their slideshows.  I have noticed this only happening on our Surface Pros.  I'm not sure if this from a PowerPoint update or Microsoft's latest firmware update for the Surface Pro.  Does anyone else with a SurfacePro see this?

Just an update.  The problem goes away when I set the DPI scaling back to 100% and the problem comes back when I set the DPI scaling to 150%

Hi

Open the PowerPoint presentation and click on Slide Show > Set Up Slide Show > make sure you haven't select Browsed by an individual (window) > OK
Close and re-open the presentation and verify the result.

Since the problem arised after your recent updates, we would recommend you go to Control panel>Program and features>View installed updates and remove your recent updates to check the issue.

We had the same behaviour on our Windows 8 Pro tablets.

Removing the last Powerpoint 2013 update (KB2817525) fixed this malfunction..
