About this tag
PPS files are PowerPoint slide show files that open directly in presentation mode. Windows users often encounter issues opening PPS files, especially after upgrading to Windows 10, where the legacy PowerPoint Viewer may not work properly. Common problems include error messages like 'This app can't run on your PC' and difficulty setting the default app for PPS files. In Windows 7, users have reported that Live Mail cannot open PPS attachments directly, requiring them to save the file first. Additionally, some users experience audio screeching when closing a PPS file prematurely. Solutions involve using the full PowerPoint application or alternative viewers, and adjusting default program settings.
