I am not getting the option of export to PowerPoint in the word web, after a specific update. Please help us to fix it.
The option to export a Word document to PDF was removed recently. I don't know why.
You can post feedback to Microsoft and let them know that you want the option back. Use the Help > Feedback command in Word for the web.
I suspect because it was more trouble than it was worth.
Charles, that sounds like a reasonable explanation. :-)
PDF still works. The One to export to a PPT presentation disappeared. I wonder if only this is gone or are others? Anyway, thank you all for answers.

Angie, I suspect that Charles is correct: the option wasn't sufficiently reliable. Do remember to post feedback to Microsoft.
The thing is, a Word document, as a full document, was never exported to PowerPoint in a way that was useful for a presentation. Too much text per slide. A Word outline exported worked well so long as there was not too much text. You can still create a Word outline and copy and paste into PP and use the design features to create slides there. It is not as slick as creating one slide for each heading.
If they rename it and give good instructions, it could be a useful feature. However as it was, I think it likely created a lot of problems for users who were expecting something better. (Neither Stefan nor I are privy to the "why" of MS decisions.)

The feature existed before, I worked with it. I started some exams now and this feature disappeared. Also the ribbon looks different.
