More Detail
-
Steps for Recovering a Corrupt PowerPoint File - well written easy to follow steps.
-
Free PowerPoint Compatible Presentation Software - you may be able to open your corrupt PowerPoint file in Open Office Presentation, or ThinkFree Office's free online version of a presentation program.
-
Free PowerPoint Compatible Viewers - viewers like Microsoft's PowerPoint 2003 Viewer and Columbus Viewer is another avenue to try with corrupt PPT files. If the file does open in the PowerPoint Viewer, the only way to recover the data, may be to right click on one of the slides, choose Print, and select a preinstalled free PDF printer. Please see here for free PDF printers. Columbus Viewer allows you to copy images from its viewer to the clipboard.

Misc. Tools to Try for PowerPoint Recovery - sorry only one weak entry here.
-
Text Extractors - if nothing else you probably should be able to recover the text from the PowerPoint presentation.
Please note: Honestly the commercial software and services is the route you will sometimes have to take to recover your data. Generally, it's a lot easier to find free programs for file repair for non-Microsoft products than Microsoft ones. You can explore them by following the links to the left.
On those occasions that you try the freeware and it doesn't work, the software in these pages will appear not be worth the time and effort you put in and this can be frustrating. I try to point out at the top of each page, what I see is the likelihood that and difficulty with which freeware can recover your data.
The Google Adsense Ads displayed on the pages should lead you to the standard commercial software and services available for the problem you are having. You can also try the commercial links by clicking on the Navigation Bar by the file type name on the left. It's also here.
To see if the program works before buying, always be sure to try the demos of commercial software first. Also the difference in prices for software that does the same thing, for instance recovering PowerPoint Presentations, can be a large range like with PowerPoint case $50 - 299. If possible, try several software solutions before buying. For services, be sure there is a no data, no fee guarantee, and a recovered file preview available.
