If my laptop crashes before a presentation, I'd quickly access my slides from cloud storage or a USB backup. If that's not possible, I could use another device like a colleague's laptop or my smartphone to present. I also email a copy to myself or the organizer for easy retrieval. If no tech is available, I’d adapt by delivering the presentation without slides, focusing on key points and engaging storytelling. Preparation, flexibility, and staying calm are essential to handling unexpected tech failures and ensuring a smooth presentation.

If your laptop crashes just before your presentation, you can quickly pivot by using these strategies: 1. Access from the Cloud: If your slides are saved in a cloud service (e.g., OneDrive, Google Drive), access them via another device, such as a colleague’s laptop or your smartphone. 2. Carry a Backup: Use a USB drive or an external hard drive with a copy of your presentation, ensuring easy transfer to another device. 3. Email Yourself: Email your presentation to yourself beforehand, so you can access it through any available device.

I’d use a backup plan: access my slides via cloud storage on another device, use a USB drive if available, or present directly from memory, engaging the audience with key points and handouts if necessary.

If my laptop crashes just before a presentation, I would quickly adapt by accessing a backup plan. I always store my slides on a cloud platform like Google Drive or OneDrive for easy access from any device. If a backup device isn't immediately available, I’d share the link with the audience or request to use a colleague's device. In case retrieving the slides isn’t possible, I would proceed by presenting key points verbally, using a whiteboard or flipchart if available to illustrate concepts. Remaining calm and focused ensures the audience still receives value from the presentation despite technical challenges.

If you are presenting often, this WILL happen to you at some point. Some last minute tech fail will cause true panic to attack your confidence. These tips can help turn lemons into lemonade. 1) take deep breaths - you can best navigate chaos with a clear head. Don't let the cortisol obliterate your resilience. 2) review and adapt your flow - your deck had a narrative arc that visuals supported. What part of that arc is still viable? Can you paint the visuals with words? What parts should you cut? Be quick and decisive. 3) engage the audience - levity can put the crowd on your side. Ask for patience w/ chaos caused by the tech meltdown. (it happens to everyone.) The failing tech can actually help you engage more deeply with the audience.

this has happened to me before! if you're not using a cloud service already, that's step one. having your presentations readily available is table stakes in 2024. and presenting from your phone is just as seamless as presenting from your laptop. both google meet and zoom have amazing mobile clients where someone probably wouldn't even know you were dialed into mobile. start there, and then once your laptop is back in business, switch over while pausing between points.

The best approach is using cloud feature because the problem is with one device not cloud and network. Present office cloud services have the auto file(backup) save option in the cloud which is used by most of the users nowadays, the person can access from his alternative device like tab, mobile, through web browser to share the Presentation file immediately.

Since I am a bit "paranoid"😁, to avoid any kind of problem, I always save my presentations on a USB stick and on the Cloud. Problem solved in advance.

If there is an important presentation, i would have 3 backup plans: A. The files would be saved to a USB drive B. I would have backed it up to the cloud where I can easily download. C. The conference coordinator would have a copy of it. D. I would have a hardcopy with me so that when all else fails, I would be able to talk off the cuff referring to the hardcopy when needed.
