Description Sebastian 2017-03-05 10:16:38 UTC
Description:
When I open some MS Office pps or ppsx documents which are not password protected Libre Office displays an error window with text: "Read Error: Opening password protected Power Point presentations is not possible."

But the pps in question is not password protected and opens in MS Office normally with out asking for password.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Take some pps document Libre Office says it is password protected and can not open it.
2.Open it in MS Office in normal way without password dialog.
3.

Actual Results:  
Libre Office displays Error window with text:"Read Error: Opening password protected Power Point presentations is not possible."

Expected Results:
PPS document should have opened normally.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: Yes

It is a edit password protected pps. But LO should open it in read only mode.

PPS is password protected against edition. But Libre Office can not open it in read only mode, which is a serious drawback. LO should be able to open doucument in read only mode even if they are protected against edition.
