Default Power Point won't recognize .wma files on external computer

Created PP presentation with music and saved it to my flash drive. Tried to
show it from a different computer but got the msg that Windows Media Player
couldn't access the sound files. The files are .wma but pull from a folder
that uses Musicmatch Jukebox. However, the files are the same name in my
Media Player and play on it fine. Do I need to convert the files somehow to
get them to work on an external computer?

Try to put the music files into the same location (folder) as your
presentation is before you add them in the presentation. After that make sure
you copy your ppt and the music files to the flash drive or on another
computer

The files are .wma but pull from a folder
that uses Musicmatch Jukebox.


Those files are "registered" to that computer with Digital Rights Management
and can not be used on another PC.
