Renaming the Folder

Changing the folder name to one with 8 characters or less and no spaces, allowed the PowerPoint presentation to be unpacked successfully.

This dialog box shown also asks whether you want to play the show now. Choosing Yes will start the show immediately. Choosing No will close the dialog box. You can then locate the presentation file later, in the folder where you unpacked it, to show it at that time.
