PowerPoint documents not saving in PowerPoint after creation.

I recently installed Office Student & Teacher edition and have been unable to
get documents to save in the programs. Does anyone know what command to use
for re-registering PowerPoint?
 
If the copy of powerpoint is a standalone package or a full msoffice package,
you might find it easier and quicker to remove the existing program through
control panel, add/remove programs and then reinstall

S
 
I have activated the product. I have received some help with this same issue
for both Word and Excel, which required using Start, Run, and entering quick
commands [winword /r] and [excel /unregserver; excel /regserver] for those
programs respectively. I am hoping for some such command that will fix the
problem in powerpoint.
 
First try help > detect & repair

Then maybe Start > run click browse
Browse to powerpnt.exe (maybe in program files/microsoft office/office10/11)
and open. This should put the path into the run box add at the end \regserver

Should look like

-- "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\POWERPNT.EXE" \regserver

Did that answer the question / help?

Pretty sure that would be something like

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\POWERPNT.EXE" /regserver

(slash before regserver goes the opposite direction)
