Not great, tech difficulties. But my boss said it's okay, the stakes were pretty low to begin with

Don't worry; it happens to us all. Also, now you have a better pre-presentation checklist and the knowledge not to trust cloud services for this.
You'll do great next time.

If they’re CEO types I recommend hitting them with a matt-jokerfied quote about things you could do to yourself and/or everyone around you.

You said it yourself, you've prepped as much as you can. You've got this!

I did not prep for OneDrive reverting the version of my presentation to one that was obviously not finished or fit for use 🙃

I hate OneDrive so much. It nearly caused me to lose all of my photos, because it "decided" to be the default storage location and not make local copies. It then had the gall to ask me for money because I was out of storage space immediately.

your presentation is going to go great. once you get started you'll be in the zone

It's a work meeting, which means you care more about this presentation than anyone else in that room, and that gives you a massive upper hand. You've got this.

When you get up there just take a deep breath and picture everyone in their uniforms after the revolution. fidel-salute-big
