I would much prefer not to open .pps files in presentation mode and instead, open them in edit mode. I don't care if the creator of the file intended the contents to be run as a presentation. I care about conserving battery on my laptop and care about maintaining a quiet environment (presentations can have music and other sound effects). I googled around and I see a lot of people complaining about this, but no action. Thanks for understanding.
