What happens when you choose to "Save As" in PowerPoint?

When you choose to "Save As" in PowerPoint, you create a new file without overwriting the existing one. This feature is particularly useful when you want to keep the original presentation intact while making changes or saving it under a different name or format. The user is prompted to choose a new file location and can specify a new filename, ensuring that the original file remains unchanged. This flexibility allows users to save different versions of their presentations or adapt existing files for new purposes without risk of losing previous work. The functionality of "Save As" is a standard practice in many software applications, enhancing user control over file management.
