When you are working on a PowerPoint presentation, the AutoSave option, if enabled, automatically saves your file at the specified time increments. This way you get to replace your current file with an earlier version. This can be very useful if you want to go back to the state of your slides an hour ago, or even two hours ago without having to use any Undo option.

Connectors are essentially some of the shapes found within the Lines category of the Shapes gallery in PowerPoint. To understand why only some of these lines can work as connectors, we first need to understand what a connector is. A connector is a line that creates a link that joins two shapes or any other slide objects to show a relationship. These connectors are linked to the slide objects they are connected—this means that they move automatically when the linked objects are moved.

A line (outline) in PowerPoint contains both points and segments. It is easy to understand the relationship between points and segments using a connect-the-dots analogy. The points represent the dots whereas the segments represent the lines you draw between the dots.
