Default Kiosk Presentation Stops

I have 36 slides in looping "forever". Sometime overnight, the program just stops running (and I don't find it until the next morning). What should I look for to find what stops it?

And what is the difference between Presentation "Full Screen" with Loop checked or just Kiosk checked which automatically checks loop?

Kiosk mode always loops and blocks any keyboard input (except ESC) looping allows keyboard access

Unfortunately running PPT shows constantly often causes them to freeze. I don't know what you can do about this, it seems to be a memory leak which eventually lets the pC run out of memory.

Would beefing up the RAM do it?

I doubt it.

Try stopping and restarting say at midnight.
