Hi - I published a course that was displaying older versions of a couple of quizzes (even though the linked quizzes were the correct versions.) This has happened before with other elements, and I learned that I need to clear the Articulate files from the Windows Temp folder. However, I am using a different computer this time, and cannot locate the temp/Articulate folder. Any ideas where it might be? Searched my entire hard drive - no luck. (I also cleared the temporary Internet files, just in case.) Thanks!
If you have the "Update Quizmaker and Engage..." option checked in Presentation options --> Publish, this should take care of that as it will always grab the latest versions from the linked locations during publishing.
Thanks, Dwayne. That option was selected, but it was still displaying some very outdated versions of the quizzes - which made me suspect the temp files.
I have a similar recurring problem that makes me bang my head against the wall. I often have to send my project folder to other team members. When it comes back to me - Articulate never remembers to link to the components in the folder - yet creates Temp files. If I'm lucky I get the pop up that asks me to relink it. How can I be sure articulate is linking to the files in my project folder and not creating phantom temp folders? I have deleted and replaced more times than I can count as a result of this non-linking. Please help a tired ID!
No problem Debbie. Also, just an FYI that when you respond via email your signature is included here - so you're welcome to edit your latest post if you'd prefer for that to not be public.

Hi Jennifer,
The easiest way to clean up your temporary files is by using a program called CCleaner:

It's a free download.
Thanks Brian - I'll give it a whirl!

Hi Debbie,
When you share the files back and forth do you make a Presenter package as detailed here?
