"powerpoint has encountered a problem and is attempting to re-start" or words to that effect and thus around 1.5 hours of fiddly work gone!!!


Purely my fault for getting so engrossed and not saving anything.

I never understood why MS felt it necessary to replace autosave with "possible recovery".
