Problem: The content of the PPT file cannot be copied or pasted, how to solve it? Simple explanation: When you try to copy or paste content in a PPT file, but find that the operation cannot be performed, this may be due to various reasons. This article will explore the common causes of this issue and provide a step-by-step guide to help you resolve the issue. Guided reading: Continue reading this article to learn the specific reasons why the contents of PPT files cannot be copied or pasted. PHP editor Apple will also provide detailed instructions to help you troubleshoot one by one and restore the file content copy and paste function.
In this case, it is usually because the PPT is protected and opened in "read-only mode", so copy and paste cannot be performed. The "read-only mode" of PPT is different, and the solutions are also different. Let's take a look below!
Case 1:
PPT is set to "read-only mode" without password.
In this way, PPT can be opened directly. After opening, the file content can be copied and pasted into another file (such as Word, new PPT, etc.), but it cannot be pasted into the original PPT.
To solve this limitation, we can find the yellow prompt bar under the menu tab, click [Edit Anyway] in the prompt box, and then you can cancel the restriction and copy and paste in PPT.
However, clicking [Edit Anyway] only removes the "restrictions" currently set, that is, the PPT still has a "read-only mode", and the next time you open the PPT, it will still be opened in the "read-only mode".
If you want to completely lift the restriction, you need to click [Edit Anyway], then click the menu tab [File], and then click [Information] - [Protect Presentation] - [Always Open as Read-Only], Then save the file and the "read-only mode" of PPT will be released.
Case 2:
PPT is set to "read-only mode" with a password.
In this way, when opening the PPT, a dialog box will pop up, prompting "Enter the password to modify or open in read-only mode". If you select [Read-only], the above mentioned will appear after opening the PPT and cannot be copied. In the case of pasting; if you enter the originally set password in the password field and click [OK] to open the PPT, you can copy and paste.
Entering the password to open the PPT also removes the "restrictions" currently set. When you open the PPT again, a dialog box will still pop up prompting you to enter the password.
If you want to completely remove the restriction, you can do this:
First open the PPT file with the password, then click the menu tab [File]-[Save As], bring up the [Save As] dialog box, and click [General Options] in the [Tools] option list;
After the dialog box pops up, you can see that there is already a password in the [Modify permission password] column. This is the "read-only mode" password originally set. Select and delete the password, and then save the PPT. The "read-only" setting of the PPT "Mode" will be released. When you open the file again, the password prompt will not pop up.
It should be noted that to deactivate the "read-only mode" with a password, you need to enter the originally set password before you can deactivate it. In other words, you cannot follow the above method without a password.
What should I do if I accidentally forget my password? In this case, we might as well take help from other tools.
For example, the Pepsi Niu PPT password recovery tool used by the editor can directly remove the "read-only mode" of PPT without a password. You only need to select the [Unrestriction] module in the tool, and then import the PPT file set to "read-only mode" into the tool, and you can lift it with one click.
That’s it for today’s sharing, I hope it will be helpful to everyone!
