SUMMARY

When you start Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003, the program does not make sure that all the keys that it writes to the Windows Registry are correct. When any PowerPoint keys are missing or corrupted, PowerPoint does not automatically correct them. This behavior is different from versions of PowerPoint earlier than PowerPoint 2000 and improves the performance of the versions later than PowerPoint 2000.

MORE INFORMATION

To resolve the issue of corrupted or missing registry keys, run the Detect and Repair utility in PowerPoint. To do so, follow these steps:
  1. In PowerPoint, on the Help menu, click Detect and Repair.
  2. Click to select each check box, and then click Start.
