vCheck

vCheck answers a question everyone in the field asks: is the deck on my laptop still current? Once you’ve downloaded a presentation, slides in the library can change underneath it. vCheck compares your downloaded deck against the library and flags any slide that’s gone out-of-date.

vCheck is SlideSource Library’s freshness check for downloaded decks. Rather than re-downloading everything “just in case,” you run vCheck and it tells you, slide by slide, whether your copy is still good — and lets you pull a refreshed deck if it isn’t.

vCheck marks each slide in a downloaded deck with a status badge:

Badge Meaning
Up to date Your copy matches the current library version.
Update available A newer version of the slide exists in the library.
Rejected The slide’s version has been rejected in review.
Deleted The slide no longer exists in the library.
A downloaded deck showing per-slide vCheck status badges: up to date, update available, rejected, and deleted

Running vCheck opens the SlideSource vCheck: Slide Updates status page — a summary of what changed across the whole deck. From there you can Download updated presentation to get a refreshed .pptx that swaps in the current versions.

vCheck isn’t only for decks you downloaded yourself — it also works on shared decks, so someone who received a public share link can check whether their copy is still current.
