None of my PP presentations will play the midi files that are in them
anymore. The files play elsewhere. What happened? Something has changed but I
don't know what.

What new software have you installed? To repair this, try re-installing
Windows Media Player on your PC.

I had tried several different midi files just to make sure there wasn't
something wrong with the one I had been using. None worked. Then I copied the
file into the same folder as the PP and it works fine. So it had to be
something where PP couldn't find the path to the file. So if anyone else has
that problem, have them give that a try. I'm working again now.
