I published my storyline as a CD and now I want to open it on another computer that doesn't have storyline installed, to view the product but it doesn't open correctly?
when you publish the files and open the folder do you get the following on the CD? If you click the Launch_Story that should run the story - this is in SL1...hope that helps
Open Folder: This opens a file viewer where you can see the files Storyline just created. There will be several folders and files, and the file that launches your course is called Launch_Story.exe. There’s also an autorun file, which causes your presentation to launch automatically if learners insert a CD or DVD containing your published output.
What do I do with my files once I've published?
Now that you've published, you can burn the files to a CD or DVD, or copy them to whatever local destination from which you plan to deploy your course.
Note: If you burn your course to a DVD, it must be played in a computer DVD drive. It will not function in a DVD player on a TV.
On my own PC it works, but if I insert the memory stick into my friends laptop it does that. I am not sure about the popup blockers. Nothing appeared in the tab above.
Thanks for that bit of information. Please be sure that your users are copying the files to their local hard drive, then double-clicking the Launch_Story.exe file to play the course.

Hi Nishant! Is that on another user's computer? Looks like they are accessing via the D drive. What if they copy the entire output file to the local drive and re-try to access?
I'm not certain that there is a problem, but following the guidelines would be the first step in diagnosing :) You are welcome to share the .story file with me to take a look.

Hello
Yes I know I did exactly that. And when I double click on launch story it is just a white screen with a small icon in the uper left corner.
Do you have popup blockers on?

Does your other computer have flash installed?
OKAY the problem was the flash player.
