Windows 10: File open issue in PowerPoint

Hi, I can’t open my PowerPoint files and I get a message: Sorry, PowerPoint can't read ^0. I read that I could open the file in Keynote and then export the file in PowerPoint but that didn’t work as well. I use Office on Mac btw. How to fix this problem?

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

 

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?

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
