Unable to view Microsoft Power Point programs

I have a new Vista Home Basic - installed the Powerpointviewer.exe and am still unable to view the Power Point slideshows.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you!

Try it this way...

Right click on the powerpoint file > click Open with > select Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer > close to the bottom, put a tick to always "use the selected program to open this type of program" > click OK

Does it work?

In case you do not have open with option in your context menu, follow this tutorial to install option:

  • Microsoft Home and Student TRIAL Power Point 2010?

    In September 2011, I bought Microsoft Office home and student 2010. This week, I tried to make a presentation in power point for a workshop I give in Ethiopia. I was unable to use the program. He said that the trial period was over. I was not aware that the PP was a trial version. When I bought the package of 2010, I thought I was getting all the programs. Why was it a trial version and did not elaborate on the information? What can I do? The workshop is Friday, and Microsoft does not list Ethiopia as a country from which I can ask questions.

    You can not do this. Programs include not only their program
    files. There are also many references in \Windows, in the register and
    elsewhere and these re all lost if you reinstall Windows.

    Restore your computer to factory settings is very rarely necessary.
    and is usually a big mistake. It often leads to its own problems.
    Why you 'need' to do? Tell us what are your problems and it's
    no doubt someone here can help you to fix it.

    Also if you restore your computer to factory settings, you should not
    have to buy Word, Publisher, Power Point, etc. all over again.
    Did you buy these? They come with the computer?

    My guess would be Dos 5.0 and Windows 3.11.

    Which are both a very long downtime of support by Microsoft.

    This thing has been installed unnoticably, and it gives me a huge problem instantly. He did all my 'all my removable storage devices"disappear. All memory locations and all digital players no longer appear. This happened immediately after the installation of PowerShell 1.0 (KB928439).
    I tried to uninstall, but there is no options of. I googled around for 2 hours... and believe me I think I've tried all the solutions. I did a system restore that per month always return did not work. And for some strange reason, there is a green light in the slot for memory card, indicating its used. But it is not used or I used everything.

    Is there anyway to uninstall this program? It gives me a lot of trouble.

    It's his turn to Windows features turn on or off http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Turn-Windows-features-on-or-off

    That will disable.

    To remove it completely, click View Installed Updates in programs and features. Locate KB928439 then uninstall it.

  • copy a document power point in a dvd movie maker

    I ve worked hard on a power point document, now I want to do a video with it, but iI can´t download it in my movie maker program, could you tell me why this is so?

    ================================
    I think the best would be to extract the
    images drawn from the Power Point document and import
    in Movie Maker / DVD Maker as you
    d all other photos.

    Just open the Power Point document and go to...
    File / save as /. HTML

    No guarantee... but the freeware depending on power
    Point Image Extractor works for me...

    FWIW... (there is also a download for)
    PowerPoint Image Copier... it did not work for me)

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Power Point Image Extractor
    http://alainlecomte.free.fr/download.htm#PPImageExtractor
    to download... left click on the green text:
    > Download PowerpointImageExtractor V1.2 (960 KB)

    Save the file to your desktop. Open the .zip file and
    Drag the file .exe Setup file and drop it on
    your office. Double left click the file to install.

    Copy your .pps, .ppt file to your desktop.

    Open the extractor and left click on the "Load" button

    Go to the .pps, double and .ppt file left click...

    The software will extract the images and place them
    in a folder on your desktop with the same name that
    the file.

    Good luck...

  • Import Power Point presentation to 9 Captivate (mac user).  Cannot change the slides. Please notify.

    On a Mac, I imported a Power Point presentation to 9 Captivate.  I would like to edit and add effects.  At this stage I can't edit any PPT Slides.   Could someone advise me. Thank you.

    That depends: do you need to publish projects responsive or normal?

    A theme in Captivate is made (and I recommend this sequence) of all the styles object (including settings of default styles, the States of the buttons and the form buttons, settings for views of breakpoint in the case of projects of reactive), master slides (which will use object styles) and skin. Each theme can also switch to another palette of theme colors. I just blogged about the color scheme, which can also be used in different training Interactions. Most of the books/training just touch this topic very sparingly or omit, that I do not understand. I have printing is bound to have a book out very quickly, and the writers/trainers are not not developers.

  • Adobe Presenter gel and Power Point crashing

    I have been using Adobe Presenter 7.0 with all patches (up to 7.0.6) in Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007.  Sometimes during recording, Adobe Presenter would freeze, then I had received a message that the Adobe Presenter component software plug-in caused a serious problem in Power Point and Power Point would need to stop.  I would lose all work record and the changes I had made since the last time I had closed on the recording mode.  I did some troubleshooting, removing Adobe Presenter 7.0 nor recharge it with the patches.  This did not help.  I also upgraded to 7.0.7.  It seems to be even worse now.  Any help would be appreciated!

    After some troubleshooting with support from Adobe, it continues to happen.  After a brief pause and return to the record, I had the same problem and just happened to find the following in a Google search: http://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-connect/kb/presenter-crashes.html.  So far (fingers crossed), I had no other incident!
