I keep getting the same error message from PowerPoint "some linked files were
unavailable and can't be updated"

So far this is what I have learned. If I link off an Excel file on my C
drive the problem doesn't happen. But, if I link off an Excel file on my
network drive is when it causes this issue to occur. Also, this issue is
limited to linked Excel cells. It does not impact charts created in Excel
and then linked to PowerPoint.

I have found the support article on Microsoft's site, but this fix doesn't
work.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!
