PowerPoint Viewer was unable to start properly. To reinstall any missing
files, run Setup again.

I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it so many times it's not funny!!!
What do I do? Any help is really really appreciated as I am at my wits end.
Oh yeah I have windows vista 32 bit. It worked before vista crashed and I had
to reinstall it.
 
Vindys' link goes to the PPT 2007 Viewer. Here's one that goes to the 2003
Viewer:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...27-43ab-4f24-90b7-a94784af71a4&DisplayLang=en

Probably you'll want to install the 2007 Viewer, but if it doesn't work for
some reason, you might try the 2003 Viewer.

Then again, what are you doing when this happens? Are you starting the
Viewer from a shortcut on your desktop or in My Documents or something, or
are you trying to use Package for CD or what? Do you know which version of
the Viewer you're working with? What operating system?
 
I tried powerpoint viewer 2003 and it works. I still can't get 2007 to work
no matter what. I have windows vista home premium. I click on the program or
powerpoint viewer file either way 2007 doesn't work. I downloaded it from
vindy's link many times. I don't know what the problem is. Guess I will just
have to use 2003 for now.
