Set blank layout as default?

BIGK

Is there a way to set the blank layout as the default layout when I start PP
or create a new PP file?

The only way I know to get there is open PP or click new and then in slide
layout hit the blank layout button.
 
If I understand correctly, you don't want PPT to start automatically with
the Title layout but to start with a blank layout instead.

I don't think you can do it, but let us know which version of PPT - maybe
somebody knows a way.

You can always let it start with a title slide then do Format, Slide Layout
and pick the Blank layout from there.
