[FONT=&quot]I have been using PowerPoint since Office XP. It didn’t have and still doesn’t have an Edit entry on the context menu for .pps or ppsx files. This is very annoying when we want to edit one of those files as I often do. I made the necessary change in the registry, and the Edit shortcut showed up on the context menu for .pps files for XP and [/FONT][FONT=&quot]2003, and [/FONT][FONT=&quot]then also for the ppsx files for and 2007. I exported and saved the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]modified registry settings to be able to just import them at any time I had to reinstall Office. It was simple, for each new Office version I only had to modify the path for PowerPoint and it worked.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Now, I have tried to do the same for 2010. It does have an Edit key under Shell, but the Edit shortcut doesn’t appear on the context menu. I don’t understand why it doesn’t work now. Am I making any mistake or is there another reason? Can someone, please, enlighten me on finding a way to do it?[/FONT]
