Quiz not updating in published presenter program

Mar 25, 2011

After updating a quizmaker quiz from inside presenter the quiz doesn't update in published version. After 'saving and returning to Presenter' and republishing, I'm asked if I want to update the quiz and I accept, but the published version is not changed. The only way I can make it work is to delete the quiz slide, then open QM, modify the quiz, close QM, and reinsert the modified quiz. Suggestions?

The first thing I would do is check out this article:

If that doesn't resolve your issue, what's the directory path that the presentation is located in? Like C:\Articulate It's possible the path to the quiz or the presentation is what's causing the issue. Here's what I would do to try to fix this:

  1. Follow the steps here to create a Presenter package of your presentation. http://www.articulate.com/support/presenter09/?p=457
  2. Locate all of your .QUIZ and .INTR files that are associated with the presentation and move them to a new folder so you can save them somewhere.
  3. Now move the .ZIP file that was created in step 1 to a folder on your C drive that does not contain any special characters like C:\Articulate
  4. Right click the file and select Extract. Once the files are extracted you should have a folder with all of the assets used in your project including any .QUIZ files and .INTR files.
  5. Open the presentation.
  6. Any quiz or interaction you edit now should prompt you to locate the .QUIZ or .INTR file. Point to the .QUIZ or .INTR files that are in the new folder you created when you extracted the presentation.

Do that for all of the quizzes and that should fix things.
