Default Convert a PPS to a SCR?

Is there anyway to convert a read only power point PPS file into a screen
saver scr file?

Thanks!

You can't turn the PPS into an SCR so you have to use a dummy SCR to launch
the PPS.
The information is there on the first link.

But a PPS is the same as a PPT file, really. Just open PowerPoint, use
File/Open and navigate to the PPS. Use File/Save As to save it as a PPT
file.

Or just open a window, go to the PPS file and rename it with a PPT
extension. Remove the read only attribute by right-clicking and choosing
Properties.

Or have I totally misunderstood what the problem is?
