Before I had an update to 1809 version I had a Power Point Viewer .

Please can I have the Power Point Viewer back .

Microsoft got in my computer and it got so messed up I had to take my computer to the Microsoft 

Store where they had to take it back to factory then upload a New Version of Windows 10 the 1809 version.

I would like to get the Power Point viewer I had back .You retired it from being downloaded while my computer was in the 

Microsoft store .

Is there anyway I can get this back?

    Microsoft has removed that software from its site. You can find it to download from other sources, if you trust them.

    The replacement for the PowerPoint Viewer is PowerPoint Online. There is no charge to edit or show presentations using it, as long as you have a free OneDrive account.

    Here is the "official" web page that says what John said, you are out of luck, PPT Viewer is discontinued:

    It appears MS is taking the offensive to eliminate "obsolete" or discontinued software and automagically "helping" you by uninstalling it.  They did the same thing with OneNote in Office 2016 / 2019 / 365.  But in that case users still have the option of re-installing it, not so with the PPT viewer.
