No,
pps just means PowerPoint Show.,..meant to be looked at, but not edited. Usually if you change the extension to ppt it works.

PPS files open directly into PowerPoint’s slide show player, while PPT files open in the PowerPoint editor. Most finalized presentations are saved as PPS files so people viewing them don’t have to go through any extra steps to view the presentation as it was intended.

I have been given a power point presentation that my Microsoft Office 98 version of power point attempts to open and then quits. The presentation's name has a suffix of .ppt. Looking at other PP presentations that I have received and successfully opened I notice the suffix is .pps
Have I encountered a feral file?
