Cannot open ppt files in Windows?
Not being able to open ppt files in Windows may be a result of registry errors or not having the appropriate application installed. It is strongly recommended that you scan your computer for registry errors (free).PowerPoint also stores presentations in several other file extensions in addition to file extension PPT such as PPTX, which references PowerPoint 2007, POT that references a template file and PPS, which is associated with the presentation file. There is a very slender difference between the files bearing file extensions PPS and PPT. even flipping the names from one to the other will not stop them from working. The difference is in the treatment they each receive from PowerPoint. PPS opens the slideshow in ‘Play mode’ while PPT opens the presentation in ‘edit mode’.
