Issues with MS Office 2013 PowerPoint/Excel

[Harry1980]

In PowerPoint 2013 on Windows 7 - 64 bit, when File / Save as is selected, an error message comes up stating, "An error occurred while opening the file dialog. Please save your presentation, exit, and restart PowerPoint." This is an intermittent issue and also affects Excel 2013. I have tried repairing it, done windows update and also uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck. I have researched this issue but it relates to Office 2007 and 2010 and the resolution does not support 2013.

 

Has anyone come across this issue? If so how did you resolve it?

 

Many thanks….

Hi -

 

I've got the exact same issue - did you ever find a fix? It only seems to be a certain mandatory profile that has this issue, there's others users here with issue where I've posted more details on my issue:-

Hi, I am also seeing this issue since we upgraded to Office 2013. Out of a class of 30 pupils it usually only occurs for about 5 users. We are having to save the PowerPoint onto a pen drive and then copy it onto their documents.
