Otherwise, Microsoft does not have Presenter View available in the API (integration format) that we use.

    As of 10/26/2020 this is still an issue. All comments below recommending turning off Presenter View is the answer -- I also had to set the Monitor to "Primary". In the Ribbon click "Slide Show" > and in the Monitors section for Monitor select "Primary Monitor" and uncheck the box to "Use Presenter View". Good luck!
