Enabling Add-Ins in PowerPoint – (PC & Mac)
One of the easiest and quickest ways to enable an addin in PowerPoint is to place the add-in file in any folder of your choice. There is no requirement for a specific location, so you can select any folder that is convenient for you. However, it is important to ensure that you do not move the file after you have enabled it in PowerPoint. Moving the file could disrupt its functionality or require you to re-enable the add-in.

🎁 The 4 infographics:
1. Progress Ring
Here, you click the button, type a number between 1 and 100, and a perfect progress ring is generated with the value locked in the center. Done.
2. Progress Gauge
The classic half-donut style you see on dashboards and KPI slides. Same process. One click, one number, one perfectly calibrated gauge with your metric centered inside. Clean and instant.
3. Segmented Bars
A three-step guided build: enter your product names (or just type a number and the tool names them for you), set the number of segments per product, then enter your values or leave blank to generate random placeholders. Pro tip: 4–5 columns and up to 7 products keeps everything balanced on a standard slide.
4. Process Diagram
For workflows, timelines, and strategies. Enter a number from 1 to 6, and a new slide is generated below your current one, fully laid out with all your steps in position. Need more than six? Generate two slides and re-label the continuation steps. No redrawing, no realigning.
Setup (no installation needed):
Download the ZIP, copy the add-in file to your PowerPoint Add-ins folder or any other folder, enable macros once in Trust Center, and load it from the Developer tab. The add-in tab appears and you’re ready to generate.
✍️ A note on digital signing:
This add-in is currently unsigned. It’s free while this toolset is being built out, and a paid code-signing certificate isn’t something I’ve taken on yet given there’s no revenue from it at the moment. As InfoLab grows, getting it signed is on the roadmap. It’ll mean a smoother, less alarming install for everyone. For now, the setup guide walks you through enabling it safely, and explains exactly what the add-in does.
⛔ About macros – please read before downloading:
InfoLab is built on PowerPoint’s VBA platform, the standard way add-ins like this automate tasks in PowerPoint. Setup involves a one-time step to enable macros in PowerPoint’s Trust Center. This is normal for VBA-based add-ins and only allows code to run from files you explicitly install yourself. If you’re not comfortable enabling macros, this add-in likely isn’t the right fit. Better to know that upfront.
Requires Microsoft PowerPoint on Windows or Mac.
