How to convert PPS to PPSX

VBA macros in the original .pps are dropped during conversion - .ppsx cannot store macros; use .ppsm if macro support is needed.
Renaming .pps to .ppsx produces a broken file - the two formats use completely different internal structures (OLE2 binary vs. ZIP/XML) and require an application to convert.
Embedded audio and video are repackaged into the .ppsx ZIP container, but media that was linked rather than embedded may not carry over - check playback after converting.

Will the converted file still open in slide-show mode?

Yes - .ppsx opens directly in full-screen slide-show mode when double-clicked, exactly like the original .pps did.

Can I convert PPS to PPSX without Microsoft Office?

Yes - LibreOffice Impress is free and open-source and converts .pps to .ppsx on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

What is the difference between `.ppsx` and `.pptx`?

Both use the same Office Open XML container; .ppsx opens directly in slide-show mode while .pptx opens in the editing view.

Is there any quality loss when converting?

No - slides, images, animations, transitions, and speaker notes all carry over intact; the conversion rewrites the file container, not the content.
