WINDOWS

======================================================================

The information in this article applies to:

  • == Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows, versions 4.0, 4.0a, 4.0c ==

SYMPTOM

When you try to run the AutoContent or Pick A Look Wizard, you may get the following error:

Sorry, cannot find c:.ppt. Run PowerPoint Setup.

CAUSE

PowerPoint looks for Wizard files in a subdirectory called WIZARDS, which must be one level below the location of the directory containing POWERPNT.DLL. If you move the Wizard files to any other directory, or rename the WIZARDS subdirectory, PowerPoint won’t find the files, and the above error occurs.

STATUS

This is not a problem with PowerPoint 4.0. An unmodified installation will put the Wizard files in the correct location.

RESOLUTION

Move the Wizard files back to a directory called WIZARDS that is one level below the directory that contains POWERPNT.DLL.

MORE INFORMATION

This error applies to all .PPT files in the WIZARD subdirectory.

If trying to run a wizard based on the following subjects, you will get the same error message stated in the article.
