Open PPA File
PPA is a file extension commonly associated with Microsoft PowerPoint Add-in Format files. The Microsoft PowerPoint Add-in Format was developed by Microsoft and is only compatible with the Microsoft PowerPoint Office application.
Add-ins are complementary programs that add custom features and functionality to office applications. Add-Ins can be obtained from Microsoft's own page, as well as from third parties or independent programmers, who use Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) in their development process and that programming code is stored in a PPA extension file. It is used to extend the capabilities of Microsoft PowerPoint.
In order to open a PPA file you need to have Microsoft PowerPoint installed, either on Windows or on MAC.
