Set the Path Operating System Variable

Assuming you installed in the default folder, add the following to the operating system PATH variable:

"c:\program files\Softinterface, Inc\Convert PowerPoint\"

or if you have a 64 bit operating system:

"c:\program files (x86)\Softinterface, Inc\Convert PowerPoint\"

to avoid this error:

"ConvertPPT is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

For Windows 7:

1. Enter: Control Panel\System and Security\System  in Windows Explorer

2. Click "Advanced system settings"

3. Click the "Advanced Tab"

4. Click "Environment Variables"

5. Select the Path variable. Then click Edit

For Windows Vista:

2. Choose "Properties" from context menu
