Microsoft has built a so-called ransomware protection into Windows 10. If this is activated, Microsoft blocks some folders from being accessed by almost any program. By default, the Public and My Documents, Pictures, Music, and Videos and My Favorites folders are protected. These cannot be removed from protection without disabling it completely. However, you can even include folders that you want to protect. If ransomware protection is active, AquaSoft SlideShow must be enabled for access to protected folders to function properly. |
If the presentation is varied and exciting, friends or family will agree with you, that time is relative. In the same way, the number of pictures is a very subjective decision. The better you “write your script”, the better you will know, how many pictures you should show.
With reference to the question about “optimal number of pictures” there is no single answer.
Before you design a presentation, ask yourself the following questions:
•Is there sufficient variety among your pictures, videos and music?
•Are the pictures and the videos of adequate quality?
•Have I designed the presentation so that the audience will experience moments of tension and surprise?
As a result of thorough preparation you have already selected images, and within that selection motifs are not repeated and the images are interesting and varied.
Through the use of appropriately emotional music you can accent particular moments.
To quickly and effectively achieve a good result you can make advance preparations. It is sensible to create a directory, which may then be divided into sub-directories. Into these you can drop your pictures, sorted by your own criteria.
Additionally, if you would like to rename the images, you should do so now. If the images are only inserted and then renamed or moved, they will no longer appear in the project.
Organize your pictures before you start creating your project. If you insert the images, these will once again not be stored. Only the reference is saved to the location where the images are. When the images are moved or renamed in a different folder, you can no longer be accessed via the link. |

You should only use unencrypted music tracks for your projects. For legal reasons, AquaSoft SlideShowonly supports the use of music titles that have been encrypted. The song must be available on your computer as locally saved file (music that is streamed or directly from a CD cannot be included).
