(copying link, link to slide, manage access) to a powerpoint. I first saved it with auto saved and when i kept getting the same error I saved it as a copy, but it won't let me share anything. I keep getting the same error message:

Unable to share right now

The system cannot find the file specified.

(Exception from HERSULT: 0x80070002).

I've tried it different times of the days and days of the week, but I keep getting the same thing.

    Hello p.mendez,  Welcome to the Microsoft Community.Based on the information you have provided, this could be a permissions issue.However, we don't know the Office and system version information you are using, so we can't accurately determine what the problem is.I would suggest you try the method below first to see if it solves the problem.Press Windows+R, open the Run box, type regedit, and select OK.When prompted to allow the Registry Editor to make changes to the device, select Yes.In the Registry Editor, expand HKEY_USERS and select “S-1-5-20”.Right-click on “S-1-5-20” and select “Privileges”.Select “Add”, type in everyone, select “Check Name” and select “OK”. Check the newly added “everyone”, select “Full Control”, and then select “OK”. 

    Disclaimer: Generally, modifying registry subkeys or work group is intended for advanced users, administrators, and IT Professionals. It can help fix some problems, however, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For further protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
