Hi @Jan_simon,

 

That's really strange!

 

By my test, I cannot reproduce your issue in my site.

 

You could have a test with the text pbix.file attached to check if you could export it to Powerpoint in your environment.

 

In addition, you could have a try with other broswers.

Hi @Jan_simon,

 

If you cannnot export all of the reports in your worksapce to PowerPoint, you need to check if you have enabled the option Export reports as PowerPoint Presentations under Tenant settings.

 

Please note that only the Admin accout could set this option.
