“Open PowerPoint PPT files without Powerpoint”
by Nick Mead about Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer
If you've received a PowerPoint presentation (in PPT format) but don't have either Microsoft Office or PowerPoint installed, then don't panic. Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer is a free application that allows you to open (but not edit) PowerPoint files.
Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer is easy to use and allows you to view fully-featured presentations created in PowerPoint 97 and later versions. This viewer also supports opening password-protected Microsoft PowerPoint presentations and allows you to print presentations opened in it.
Once you've installed it,
Office 2007 Enterprise, all you need to do is browse to the file that you want to open from the file menu. It only opens presentations in full screen mode which is a bit annoying but you can navigate slides by right clicking on the current slide. Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer supports the full range of PowerPoint file extensions including .ppt,
Microsoft Office 2010, .pptx, .pptm,
Purchase Office 2010, .pot, .potx,
Buy Windows 7, .potm, .pps,
Windows 7 Professional Product Key, .ppsx and .ppsm. When you've opened one file, it should automatically open others as the default viewer for PowerPoint files.
Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer is all you need to open PowerPoint files without having to go to the expense of installing PowerPoint itself.
