"I worked very hard on my PowerPoint presentation from last few weeks, but yesterday when I tried to open my PPT file, I encountered an error message which said, “There was an error accessing C:\documents and settings\username\abc.pptx”. I know the error message is a classical sign of a corrupt PowerPoint file and worse I don’t have a backup of that PPT file. Can anyone help me in resolving this problem?"
