    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
    most of the time it works to me. *Smile Can't open files in excel, publisher or powerpoint :)

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    Firstly, I am not that familiar with Powerpoint.
    I have only messed it with a few times.

    Try this... Use one of these, or all of these, to open the file and see if they will run and save it:
    Kingsoft Office Suite Free 2012
    Lotus Symphony 3.0.1
    LibreOffice
    Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0

    Some other info that may be of use:
    The PowerPoint FAQ - PowerPoint Help
    PowerPoint won't open my older PowerPoint presentations
    PowerPoint crashes while opening certain presentations
    If the file is password protected... Remove password from a password-protected PowerPoint file
    Recovering a corrupt presentation

    Goodluck

    Can't open files in excel, publisher or powerpoint

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    I have a very perplexing situation on my hands. *Bang Head :banghead:

    I have 2 PowerPoint files that crash PowerPoint when attempting to open them. The problem is that this is only happening on some computers. All the machines I have attempted to open the files on are running Windows 7 and have Office 2010 installed. The computers also have Office 2010 SP1 install so I have ruled that out as an issue as well.

    Any ideas?
