Pack and Go also created a file called PNGSETUP.EXE. It must be run to "unpack"
the .PPZ file. Then and only then can you run the unpacked Viewer and open the
unpacked presentation.

Think of it as packing for a trip. At home you pack your suitcase. At your
destinationyou unpack the suitcase so that you can use its contents.
