Thanks: 1 times
I have a 30 second music clip that every Sunday the PowerPoint slide is different. The slide is layered onto the music clip. Sometimes it loads, most of the time it shows up offline. I have a folder in My Documents called Church Cal Sunday where the PowerPoint slide files are stored. I prepare the services weeks in advance and save each week as a separate preset. I'm unable to determine if the Preset is looking at the correct path to fetch the slide.

It sounds like the issue might be related to how the preset is referencing the slide files. If the preset is looking for the slides in a specific path, any change in folder location, file name, or even network availability can cause it to fail. A few things to try:

1. Make sure each PowerPoint slide file has a consistent name and isn’t moved after saving the preset.
2. Check if the preset allows you to re-link or browse to the correct folder for each week’s slide.
3. Try saving the slides in a simpler path (e.g., C:\ChurchCalSunday) to avoid issues with My Documents paths, which can vary depending on user or OneDrive syncing.
4. Test one preset at a time to ensure it works before prepping multiple weeks in advance.
