    Hi LeClair, Michael L. (Rumford),

    Good day! Welcome to Q&A forum.

    To displaying SharePoint PowerPoint in presentation mode and allowing auto slides, refer to the following steps:

    1. Set up PPT to play slideshow automatically, set the autoplay time for each slide, open the PPT locally, click on the first slide and click "Transitions" on the menu bar User's image User's image
    2. Then click on each slide, and set the corresponding time (the playback time of each slide can be set differently)
    3. Save the file and upload it to SharePoint
    4. Open the PowerPoint file in SharePoint Online, click "Open in browser" (this uses Office Online)
    5. Click “Present” and then Choose "Strat from beginning"

    Hope these information helps.
