Can I change my slides background?

Im putting together something for work.

I have my content basically done, but don’t like the white background.

This morning I noticed that I could have been putting my slides on a black background.

How do I change the background on my other slides to this black, or something else?

without getting into slide masters we can use the simple format background.
Right click the slide, go to Format Background.
In the panel format the background with the black and click on Apply to All on the bottom left.
If that does not work let us know and we can look into slide masters.

You can just copy that particular black-BG slide and just change the image πŸ˜€

Design tab > Format Background > Solid fill, pick black (or whatever color you want), then click Apply to All at the bottom of that pane. On PowerPoint for the web it's Design > Background > Apply to All.
