In my presentation of Powerpoint, I have two plain slide in powerpoint and the third slide of quiz in it.
When I publish it in LMS with scorm 2004 along with launcher option publish is successful. But when I open the launcher.html I get error "Unable to acquire LMS API.
The SCO must be loaded to an LMS for the SCORM functions to work. Launched outside of that environment you'll consistently receive that error because there's nothing to connect to.
You may also want to publish your SCO without the launcher (look in publish settings for a checkbox to uncheck). Some LMS launch their own tracking frame and it's possible that this launcher file will interfere with the connection. LMS that launch courseware in another window makes this file unnecessary anyway

* Contact your LMS provider and ensure that your installed version of Java is compatible with the version of the LMS you are using.
* Ensure that you have published your content properly as described in the following article:

If this issue persists, you can make the following modification to your player template, and test your content again:
