My PC was upgraded at work and I moved my Storyline 2 over from my old PC over to new PC. I copied over the Articulate files over but it appears to not carry over the source files only the output ones.
Does anyone know how Storyline 2 manages the source files - where do they normally default to and what is the extension?
Hey there, Alex. The default saving location for your Articulate projects is in your user profile of the C: drive, in Documents > My Articulate Projects.
If you've changed that when saving a file, or if you've worked a file from your Downloads folder, it might have saved to another location.
I like to use my File Explorer search on the entire C: drive to look for *.story files if I'm in a pinch.

Great thanks Crystal will give that a go!
Hey thanks again Crystal I managed to get back all my old source files - phew!
My work computer split the files (weird huh!) between my C:drive and the network drive which meant I couldn't see them.
The lesson I learnt was to back up, back up and back all your source files onto an external drive.
Thanks for your help!
Well that's great! I know you're relieved to have your source files.
Good lessons there, for sure. Thanks for the update! 😊
There are only two kinds of computer users: Those who are going to lose important data, and those who make regular, redundant backups.
