    Hi @Louie1,

    What version of Office account did you use?

    Where did you save the PowerPoint files? In local computer or cloud?

    If you save the files to cloud, I suggest you make sure you have sign in the correct account to access.

    You can also try to sign in the account to Office online: https://www.office.com

    If your files were stored on your local hard disk, and that hard disk is still operable, you can copy your old files from it. You would have to remove the hard disk from the old computer. Then buy a USB interface for it, so you can plug it into your new computer. Then copy the files. If you're not technically skilled, you might want to get a tech service company like Geek Squad to copy the hard disk contents to DVDs for you.
