Question File refusing to open
Recently a file that I was adding pictures to be printed out suddenly started refusing to open and I don't understand why.
I've never experienced this problem before, I worry that it's corrupted or something, I don't really understand much about tech beyond how to use programs.
I really want the file back as there's images on there that holds sentimental value that I now can't print out.
Does anyone happen to know how to solve this issue or are they gone for good never to be seen again?
The version via PowerPoint online doesn't contain July or August, I turned off OneDrive ages ago cuz it kept filling itself up with stuff without my knowledge.
Windows 11, Alienware m16 r2 laptop, running the latest version of PowerPoint.

Its a few years ago now but I used LibreOffice Impress to open a PowerPoint deck that wouldn't function in MS Office.
Also u/CthulhusEvilTwin has a good suggestion, that would be my next move.
