Okay, I translated a file in SDL Trados 2021 and exported it as a Powerpoint. It looked fine, I opened it and made changes etc. Then I sent it to the client who couldn't open it.

Can you reexport it from Studio? Nov 17, 2020

I have no suggestion why you get this problem, but is it possible to reexport the file from Studio? I know this is not nice since you have already done work in the original Powerpoint file.

Perhaps then open and save the exported powerpoint as a new file (a backup file), just in case, but where you check the format you save it in?

Just my 5 cent.
