Power Point only opens as viewer

[BAG lady]

Help! I can only download Power Points as a "viewer". Therefore, I can't
edit any of my projects created and then emailed to my home computer. (I can
open them on my school computer without a problem.) Can you tell me how to
fix this problem? Thanks

Have you purchased a license for the version of Power Point you have
installed and have you activated it? If not all you have is a viewer after
the trial expires.

Hi BAG lady

In addition to LV's advice, it may be that the file association has broken
as we have had some reports of this recently. See if this fixes it:
