Auto-recover didn't/doesn't work - Storyline x64

Apr 20, 2024

I am using Storyline x64, and have the options set to Auto-recover every 10 minutes. 

Today I was working for over 6 hrs, and the color-picker froze the screen. 

  • I tried to save but nothing. 
  • I tried to close the window (at which point there's normally a prompt to save) but nothing.
  • I went into my C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Articulate\Storyline - and the last .tmp file was from 12.00pm (the time of my last manual save). 
  • I double-checked my auto-recover settings, and it was 10min. 

And before you ask... no, I am not working off shared storage.

What the .... Articulate!?

I'm afraid I've lost nearly the entire day of work.  Has anyone else experienced this with x64 version?

I noticed that you've also opened a support case and connected with my colleague, Carlo. It looks like Carlo just replied to your e-mail sharing additional insight into this behavior.

We can continue the conversation through your case to keep all information in one spot.
