So, I installed play on linux and then office 2010. After that, I am able to open word and excel. But just a few seconds after the PowerPoint window shows up, it crashes. And sometimes it asks me if I want to start it in safe mode and after I click yes, then it's normal. It doesn't crash. But when it's not in safe mode, a few seconds. And then crash. What have I done wrong? How can I fix it?

I don’t use play on Linux, but libre office does what ms office does. I think it supports most if not all native ms formats, so you can use it as you would ms office.

I'm a huge fan of Libreoffice. Unfortunately, I am forced to use Microsoft Office because I do collaborative projects with others who use MS Office which finally end up being projected in schools which support only MS Office. And there are formatting issues when I use Libreoffice. I tried using WPS Office and Onlyoffice, but even there I've found formatting issues.

Hey. I had asked the same thing on Bodhi group on Discord and got the answer there. The thing was that I had created snapshot from another machine which was running Nvidia and had installed that onto this current machine (which didn't have Nvidia). So, removing the Nvidia drivers worked. I can use powerpoint now. Thanks all for the help.
