METWIPE FILE PRIVACY

Remove metadata from PowerPoint PPTX files online

MetWipe cleans supported OOXML core document properties inside PPTX files locally and verifies the rebuilt package.

OPEN FREE TOOL

Local processing

The supported file is processed in the browser without an application file-upload endpoint.

Cleaned copy

Your original file is left untouched and a separate cleaned copy is generated.

Verification

MetWipe re-opens the output and checks supported metadata structures before reporting success.

PowerPoint presentation properties cleanup

PPTX uses an OOXML package. MetWipe cleans supported core document properties and supported Company/Manager fields. Slides, notes, comments and embedded content require their own privacy review.

Check a non-sensitive example

Use a non-sensitive deck with a known author property. Clean and download a copy, reopen it and inspect document properties. Also check a slide with an image and one with text. Review speaker notes and off-slide objects separately before sending the deck.

What remains outside this check?

Removing the author property does not erase a name printed on a title slide or an internal note. Older PPT files, encrypted packages and unsupported archive methods can fail. Keep the original and check the actual exported copy.

If the result is unexpected

Check that you selected the downloaded copy rather than the original. Read any error before retrying. Try a smaller, non-sensitive file in the same format to distinguish a file-specific issue from a browser limitation. If the problem persists, describe the format, browser and error through Contact.

PowerPoint metadata removal questions

How do I remove metadata from a PowerPoint PPTX?

Select the PPTX, inspect the supported document properties, create a separate cleaned copy and verify that output before sharing.

What PowerPoint metadata can reveal author information?

Supported OOXML document properties can include author-related and organization-related fields such as Company or Manager when present.

Does metadata cleanup remove speaker notes or names on slides?

No. Slide text, notes, comments, off-slide objects and embedded content require their own privacy review.
