freidadcosta 		The error message shows that you ppt file is corrupted and for corrupted ppt file you should use recovery software. Professional Powerpoint file recovery software repairs the corrupt ppt file. It is powerful power point repair tool which can restore the ppt files which are corrupted due to sudden system shutdown, virus attacks, power failure, etc. It can repair the ppt files with all the objects such as footers, hyperlink text, OLE objects, headers, images, formatting, charts, etc. I hope this will help you.

emilydcosta 		To enable the PowerPoint automation you can follow the guidelines

1. First find out which user account is used to execute the .NET page
2. Open Control Panel. Then open Administrative tools, then Component services
3. Then Open Console Root, then Component Services then My Computer then DCOM Config.
4. Right click Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation component and then open its properties.
5. In the Security Tab in Launch and Activation Permissions, select the Customize option. Press Edit
6. Then grant the Local Activation and Local Launch permissions to the user account which is used to execute the .NET scripts.

This user account has the limited access to the temporary files so you should specify the Temporary Folder property of the Settings object. If nothing happens then you can try ppt repair tool to solve this situation.
