Hi,

I have the following request from a Customer. They would like to deploy a custom powerpoint template which is the first thing that opens when they open Microsoft Powerpoint 2010. In addition have the option to create a Blank default template in Microsoft Powerpoint 2010.

1. I have managed to successfully accomplish the first part by renaming the Custom Powerpoint template to Blank.potx. Then copying the file to C:\user\appdatadir\Microsoft\Templates using Group Policy Peferences.

2. However when the user clicks on create a new Blank Powerpoint template they are presented with Custom Default template.

My question is there a way of accomplishing both objectives?
