I had the same issue and found out that I'd installed the Swedish version
instead of the english/US ones. Directory contents:

When running wine PPTVIEW.EXE, it looks for a "1033" folder (english), which
does not exist. The LANG="" trick didn't help either.

But I found a workaround! Simply rename your localized folder ("1053" in my
case) to "1033".

$ mv 1053 1033
$ wine PPTVIEW.EXE
