Way 1: Change the Location of Your PPTX Presentation
Why we need to change
the location of your PowerPoint presentation that cannot be opened? As we know,
when there is an error in the hard disk, you will probably get into the trouble of
opening the files in it. So, taking this into consideration, you can move the
PPTX file to another location, such as from hard disk 1 to hard disk 2, from
internal disk to external disk, and from removable drive to internal hard disk.
How to change the location of the corrupted PPTX file? So
easy! Just go to where your PowerPoint presentation lies and then copy the
presentation. After that, navigate to the destination location and then paste
the presentation. Finally, open the PPTX file again and check whether the error
gets solved or not. If not, keep on reading next solution.
Way 2: Add Corrupted Slides into a New PowerPoint File

Step 2: Click the Browse button and then choose Browse
File. Then choose your corrupted PPTX
file and click the Open button.
Step 3: If it successfully recovers your slides, right-click
any slide and select the Insert All Slides option.
If it pops out the following window, it means that it fails to recover your content. You need to try other solutions.

your PPTX file might result from the add-ins. You can try to open the corrupted PowerPoint
