My Powerpoint Slides Get Corrupted Just Before My Presentation and This Is What I Did

After preparing presentation slides for several days to give a lecture to Uniten students yesterday, I found that the slides had become corrupted.

Many slides were missing information! This happened just as I had connected my computer and projected it onto the screen.

I remembered that when I was about to shut down my computer before heading to Uniten yesterday afternoon, the PowerPoint software warned me that there was an issue with saving the file.

Perhaps it was because I changed the folder name while making the slides. But I continued to save it with a different name without suspecting anything.

Back to my story in front of the students, I had to quickly search for old slides I had previously used.

I combined two presentation files. Therefore, I had to open and present them separately.

However, some of the new slides could not be shown because they were corrupted.

Thankfully, the presentation yesterday still went well, although I lost a few points that I couldn’t convey.

That’s a brief story of my first presentation or lecture experience in the new year 2024.
