    Powerpoint 2013 files from W7 not opening in Powerpoint 2013 W10


    Hello,

    I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 ~5 days ago. Since then, Powerpoint 2013 opens/works fine, and saves/opens new files.

    But any Powerpoint 2013 file that I work on on a Windows 7 machine or that a colleague sends me from a Windows 7 machine appears with an error message. "Powerpoint found a problem with content in xxx . PowerPoint can attempt to repair the presentation. If you trust the source of this presentation, click Repair." If I click 'repair', then it simply tells me it cannot open the file.

    Troubleshooting:
    - I have tried to repair the file - nothing happens
    - Both versions of PowerPoint are PowerPoint 2013
    - This applies whether pptx or ppt file
    - I have tried 'quick' and 'complete' repair without success

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance!

    John

    :)

    That error indicates that the PowerPoint presentations you are downloading are corrupted. Click Repair and see if your version of PowerPoint can indeed repair the presentation and then save it to your hard drive . . . If PowerPoint cannot repair the presentations,
    contact that website you are downloading the presentations from and report that PopwerPoint (your version - 2016, 2013 . . . etc.) is unable to open their files and they should be able to remedy the situation!
