PP4 File Complications

Frequent PP4 Opening Issues

Corel Presentations X8 Removed

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open PP4 Files" when trying to open your PP4. Customarily, this means that Corel Presentations X8 is not installed on %%os%%. The typical path of opening your PP4 with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens PP4 files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Corel Presentations X8 Requires Update

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Corel Presentations X8 installed that's incompatible with your Picture Publisher Bitmap File type. If you've got the wrong version of Corel Presentations X8 installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is predominately due to having a Picture Publisher Bitmap File file version that was created by a newer version of Corel Presentations X8 than what you have installed on your PC.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the PP4 file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Conclusion: The majority of PP4 file opening issues are due to not having the correct Corel Presentations X8 version installed.
