The simplest method to execute a .pptx file is to use the Windows Explorer or Mac’s Finder. First you find a file. Then you use “open with” and select Sikuli Slides as the viewing program instead of the default program such as Microsoft Powerpoint. Once the file is opened, the actions described in the file will be executed by Sikuli Slides.

Before you can open and execute slides, you must install Sikuli Slides on your system. If have not already done so, please go to the Download page to download an installer for your system and run it.
