PowerPoint 2010
YouTube videos on PowerPoint 2010 have stopped working. In September 2017, YouTube discontinued support for the Adobe Flash Player, which PowerPoint 2010 uses behind the scenes to play a YouTube video embedded on a slide.
As a result of this change, you can no longer play a video in PowerPoint 2010. Instead you get an error that says:
Flash-embedded videos are no longer supported
Following are two ways to work around this problem. Click a section heading below to open it and see more details.
Upgrade to a newer version of PowerPoint if you can
If you are able to upgrade, we suggest that you do so as a way to work around this problem that can't be fixed:
-
You can upgrade from Office 2010 to a newer version that doesn't rely on Adobe Flash Player to play YouTube videos, and therefore doesn't have the same problem that PowerPoint 2010 now has.
To make the upgrade beneficial, you need to be using a version of Windows that supports the version of Office that you've chosen. Office 2013 requires Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7. Office 2016 requires Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
If you'd like to always have the latest version of Office, you can become a Microsoft 365 subscriber. Click to try or buy and to compare a subscription versus a one-time purchase.
Use the LiveWeb add-in to insert and play an online video in PowerPoint 2010
If you aren't able to upgrade PowerPoint 2010 to a newer version at this time, we recommend you install an add-in named LiveWeb that helps you to work around the problem described above. See the following article for complete instructions:
Use the LiveWeb add-in to insert and play an online video
This task won't be suitable for everyone; it's for do-it-yourselfers who are comfortable with installing and setting up software on their own.
PowerPoint for the web
Note: Microsoft 365 apps and services will not support Internet Explorer 11 starting August 17, 2021. Learn more. Please note that Internet Explorer 11 will remain a supported browser. Internet Explorer 11 is a component of the Windows operating system and follows the Lifecycle Policy for the product on which it is installed.
You can insert an online video into a presentation in PowerPoint for the web.
For the videos to play properly, you must be using the current version of PowerPoint for the web. (Some folks who are using PowerPoint in a web browser are using PowerPoint Web App. That version of SharePoint Server 2010 or 2013 in a browser comes with SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013; it doesn't support insertion of an online video.)
For the videos to play properly, you also must use one of these browsers:
-
Microsoft Edge
-
Internet Explorer 9 (See MS12-037)
-
Internet Explorer 10 or later (recommended)
-
Mozilla Firefox 12 or later
-
Apple Safari 5 or later
-
Google Chrome 18 or later
For instructions on inserting a video on a slide, see Insert or link to a video on YouTube.
The following embed codes and video file formats are supported. In addition, depending on the embed code being used, you might need the Adobe Shockwave Player add-in. This Player includes the Flash Player that is required for some embed codes.
| What | Specifics |
|---|---|
| Embed codes supported |
(Older "object" embed codes used to be supported but no longer are (September 2017) because they require Shockwave Flash Player, which YouTube doesn't support anymore.) |
| Video formats supported |
