The bad news...
PowerPoint does not save versions, so the file that was overwritten is gone.
but you might be able to find a temp file that may have the presentation as
it was before the save. The odds are that you will not, but it might be
worth a try. Search for "PPT*.tmp" on your hard drive and manually rename
each of the files to something.ppt. Open them with PowerPoint and see if
they are what you need.
Also review if you might have emailed the presentation to someone.
The good news ...
There is an add-in that will allow you to save versions. This will not help
with this time, but might prevent a next time.
