Troubles Opening PPV Files

Microsoft PowerPoint Isn't There

If you attempt to load your PPV file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open PPV Files". Customarily, this means that Microsoft PowerPoint is not installed on %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your PPV with Microsoft PowerPoint, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: Another PPV-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Outdated Microsoft PowerPoint

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Microsoft PowerPoint installed that's incompatible with your Pocket PowerPoint Presentation type. Installing the latest version of Microsoft PowerPoint from Microsoft Corporation is recommended. This issue mainly occurs when your Pocket PowerPoint Presentation file was created by a newer version of Microsoft PowerPoint than you have on your PC.


Tip: Investigate your PPV file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening PPV files are due to having the wrong version of Microsoft PowerPoint installed.


Other PPV File Issues

Even with the correct version of Microsoft PowerPoint installed, you can still experience difficulties opening PPVs. If you're still experiencing problems opening PPV files, there could be other computer problems. Other contributing causes:

  • PPV file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Deletion of the PPV file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Defective install of a PPV program, such as Microsoft PowerPoint
  • Your PPV file is corrupted (issues with your Pocket PowerPoint Presentation file itself)
  • The PPV is infected with a virus
  • PPV-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Pocket PowerPoint Presentation format
