Articulate not launching from a CD?
Aug 24, 2012
Hello.
I'm putting together a series of eLearning courses for students in rural parts of subSaharan Africa. They have no internet access, so everything has to be on a CD. Their computers are old, and there's no way on earth they'll have updated versions of Flash. When we tested a sample module with some of our users, some had "missing plug-in" errors, so we figured we'd just set it up so the course runs within the Articulate window, instead of in whatever browser came with their computers. The course runs fine from the CD on my computer, but when we tested it on a computer configured to match our students' the Articulate Presenter window just showed up with no content. Is there a way to fix this, please? Our students have no internet access of any kind, so downloading an updated copy of Flash is not an option for them. If they need this, is it something we could burn to the CD with the course files?
Many thanks,
H. Valli

CD or not you still need flash installed on the target machines, you could burn a flash installer onto the CD
Thank you, Phil. I'll look into the best way to do that.
Well, I burned a flash installer onto the CD along with the course and tested the CD on a few computers. It works fine on the newer computer, but on the older (Windows XP) one, it still failed to work, even after running the Flash installer. I'm kind of at a loss at this point.
