Publishing quiz problem: non-local drive VS local drive on RDC
May 03, 2012
Hello Articulate community,
I am the only person at my organization who understands advanced aspects of Articulate. So everyone is looking to me for answers, which I don't have!
When I use Articulate, I have a "Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac". I open the client from my Mac screen and it connects to my other windows computer. I can use all the functions of the Windows inside the client screen on my Mac.
I have had problems with quizes non-working after publishing. I have been to this help page Quizmaker quiz in published presentation does not load during playback.
This help page suggests: Be sure to publish your presentation to a location on your local hard drive (your C: drive). Publishing to a network drive or a USB drive can cause erratic behavior.
My question is: Am I really publishing to a local drive IF I am using the RDC to connect to a different computer? If I save to the desktop of the RDC is that a local drive or a non-local drive. When I publish to the desktop of the RDC, sometimes the quizes fail to load, so I have to reinsert them inside Presenter and re-publish
Thanks so much for your help. My org is looking to me for answers, ....... and 2 months ago I didn't even know what Articulate or e-learning was!

To rephrase my question: Is saving/publishing articulate files on the desktop of an RDC connection better or the same as saving/publishing to a network/non-local drive?
Dear everyone--This issue is resolved.
It turns out that the computer that the RDC was using is actually the shared non-local network drive.
so the RDC computer is the exact same as the networked non-local drive
Thanks for following up, Brodie!
