I have a PP presentation in version 2016 that simply won't save to video, either MP4 or Windows Media File format (.wmv). It saves to PP Show fine, and there doesn't appear to be anything functionally wrong with the presentation. However, the progress bar never moves when saving to video, even if I let it save overnight. No error message or anything. I've done this a hundred times successfully before so I don't see what is wrong with this instance. So, are there any troubleshooting tools I can run that would point me in the right direction? Or nuke the planet from space and start building the presentation over from scratch?

Trying Leawo Power Point to Video converter and it's progress bar doesn't move, either. If there's a copyrighted photo with some type of copy guard here that won't allow the video to create I wish it would at least kick out an error message letting me know this so I can try something else. I'll just have to delete one pic at a time from the show and when it successfully saves to video that's the one which is copyright protected. First time I ever saw this one.

Thank you,

Chris
