How to Repair PPS Files?

Microsoft PowerPoint is a full-featured presentation program which is used to create PPS file. PPS files are MS PowerPoint files that open as a full screen slide show instead of editable PowerPoint projects. PPS files are typically created to transfer these files via mails. MS PowerPoint application comes with Microsoft Office suite and can also be purchased separately. A PowerPoint presentation consists of number of slides related to a particular topic which may be useful later while discussing on that topic. From those presentation slides handouts, outlines or speakers notes can be prepared. PPS contains various graphic tools using which pictures and graphs can be imported. Its recent versions are Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2011 from Macintosh and Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2010 for Windows OS. Its Macintosh version is almost similar in function with its Windows version. PPS files created in either of the platforms can be used in any other platforms without any conversion. Consider a situation where you have been sent a PPS file that returns an error message when you try to run it. This indicates that your PPS file is corrupted or your PowerPoint program is damaged. In such case you need to use reliable PowerPoint Repair software to access your corrupted PPS file. But before that you need to find out the exact reason behind your PPS file corruption.

Most Frequent Cause of PPS file Corruption are mentioned below:

• Operating System Corruption: Whenever you make changes in any system files or install / uninstall any new program in the operating system, registry and structure of the operating system changes because of that process. If anything goes wrong in this case then the operating system may get corrupt. But you can avoid this problem by clicking on “System Restore”. But sometimes this too fails. As a result of this all the data stored in the computer including your PPS files also become inaccessible.
• Improper System Shut Down: When a computer is forcibly / improperly shut down when the MS PowerPoint application is still working or not terminated properly then there is a chance of that PPS file getting corrupted. Improper shut down also affects the “System Restore” process badly. When a system is turned off during a restoring process the system may restore only some of the PPS files leading to file corruption.
• Apart from the above reasons, some other reasons like fluctuation in power supply, defragmentation failure, sudden system reboot, Virus attack, sharing of a PPS file over a network can both damage the PPS file and causes data inaccessibly as well. Any error occurred while downloading the PPS file from email can also corrupt that PPS file.

To avoid data loss from any of the above reason you need to take care of some precautions mentioned below:

• Terminate the Microsoft PowerPoint application properly before shutting down the system so that it’ll not affect your PPS files in anyway.
• Carry out the installation / un-installation process of any program properly so that it’ll not affect any of the PPS files saved in the operating system. If any problem occurs then try to restore the system properly to avoid further data loss.
• If you’ve lost your PPS files already then don’t make further use of the storage device / drive from which the PPS files are lost until the files are fully recovered.
