While opening a PPT file getting an error messages is depend on type of PPT corruption. One such error message is “There was an error access C:\documents and settings\username\ Presentation.pptx”. The PowerPoint corruption is main reason for this type of error.

Solution: Such errors can fix by opening corrupt PPT in earlier version of MS PowerPoint, like PowerPoint 2000 or in any earlier version. If you are able to open file in earlier version then insert slides from damages presentation in a new presentation. Follow the steps written below to do this:-

For PowerPoint 2007

It is observed, in some cases above method didn't work and corrupt file could not open in earlier version of PowerPoint. In such situation there is only one solution remain i.e. to take the help of PowerPoint Repair Software to regain the access of your original PPT file.
