  It appears the site does not allow .ppsx file types anymore. This has disabled my site. Please help ASAP!

  I don’t see any WordPress.com sites under your account here.

  What is the URL of the site with the problem?

  VA Training Site

  The site itself is not the problem though. The problem is the Media section in the dashboard. It will not allow me to upload .ppsx media files.

  Ok, that is a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we really can’t help with here.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
