How can you make an audio file loop in a PowerPoint slide?

To enable an audio file to loop in a PowerPoint slide, the correct approach is to set the audio file to repeat using playback options. PowerPoint provides specific playback features within the audio settings that allow you to control how the audio behaves during a presentation.

By selecting the audio object on your slide and adjusting the playback options in the ribbon, you can specify that the audio should automatically start playing when the slide is shown, and you can set the audio to loop continuously until the next slide is advanced. This is particularly useful in presentations where background music or sound effects need to play repeatedly throughout a specific slide.

The other options do not provide a method for looping audio effectively in the context of PowerPoint. Adjusting audio settings in the Handout Master does not apply to individual slide playback, converting audio to video does not inherently create a looping audio effect, and using the export function is related to saving presentations or files rather than directly controlling audio playback properties.
