Method 3: Download as a ODP file
There are many options in the download menu. You can download your slides as a Microsoft PowerPoint, PDF document, or JPEG image. But you have to edit the picture again, so I recommend you download your slides as an ODP file. It’s the best way to save images in batches.
Step 1: In Slides, On the top left corner, click on File > Download > ODP Document(.odp).

Step 1: In your slides, click the “present” button to enlarge the image.
Step 2: Press “Command + Shift + 4” to screenshot your desired image on Mac. If you are on Windows, try the print screen option (Ctrl + PrtScr) or “Windows + Shift + S.” After that, you will automatically download the images.
Method 5: Developer Tools
This method seems to be a little complicated, but you will find it’s accessible only you get started step by step.
Step 1: In your Slides, you can right-click somewhere in the white space above the presentation and click “inspect.” Or you can open DevTools from Chrome’s main menu, click on Customize and control Google Chrome > More Tools > Developer Tools.
Step 2: Developer Tools should open up, click on the “Elements” menu at the top of the panel, now click on the left-most icon that looks like a rectangle with a cursor pointing to it.
Step 3: Now point to your desired image and click on it, and the image link address will show in the “Elements” sidebar, it’s like “href=” something, that’s the image URL.
Step 4: Copy and paste the URL into a new tab, and right-click or control click on the image, and then select “Save image as” menu item. Done!
