Troubleshoot PRS Files


Issues Opening PRS Files

Corel Presentations X8 Isn't There

When trying to open your PRS file, you get the error "Can't Open PRS File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Corel Presentations X8 installed for %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your PRS file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


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


Corel Presentations X8 Requires Update

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Harvard Graphics Presentation file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Visit the Corel website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Corel Presentations X8. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


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


Primarily, problems experienced when opening PRS files are due to having the incorrect version of Corel Presentations X8 installed on your computer.


Other PRS File Issues

Errors opening Harvard Graphics Presentation files can still occur even with the latest Corel Presentations X8 software installed on your computer. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening PRS files. Additional factors include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for PRS
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the PRS file in the Windows registry
  • Partial installation of Corel Presentations X8 that did not fully complete
  • The PRS itself is corrupted
  • Malware-tainted PRS file can't be opened
  • Device drivers for PRS-related hardware are out-of-date
  • Too many applications are open on your PC to load your Harvard Graphics Presentation file successfully
