Getting a dreaded “corrupt file” error is very frustrating, but PowerPoint users have a number of
ways of recovering. For example, if the error appeared after a Windows crash during a Save
operation, you can usually find a *.tmp file that contains your uncorrupted PowerPoint. Or
sometimes, part of your presentation can be recovered in Microsoft Word. For more tips on
