This is a super easy and quick recipe. I came across this problem at work a while ago, I had received a powerpoint show (pps) and needed make changes but could not since it does not launch powerpoint but runs the slideshow.


1. Be sure to have your view so you can see all extension types. (In Windows Explorer, Tools > Folder Options > View tab and unchecck the “Hide extensions for known file types” )

2. Just rename the files w/a .ppt extension. i.e. meetingshow.pps -> meetingshow.ppt

3. Now you can make changes and edits to the show. You can also do the reverse too, make a ppt into a pps just by changing the extension.
