Lost storyline files

Jun 12, 2018

Hi there,

Pretty sure the answer to this is no but I have to ask just to make sure....  My laptop has locked itself and our IT has not got the recovery information so basically all my work has gone and I can't get it back and its off for a rebuild.  However most of the courses have been published to review,  am I correct in thinking that once published I can't get them back to edit them?

Praying for a miracle but not holding out much hope :(

Hi, Jennifer! Thanks for reaching out here – always a great idea to ask, and I'm really sorry to hear about this.

A .story file cannot be extracted from the published output, but not all hope is lost! There may be a working version of your project in your temp files – here's a quick Peek on how to find temp files in Windows. Conducting a full search of your computer for files is another option, but you may need to enlist the help of your IT team for the process.

I'll be standing by to hear how you make out – and also crossing my fingers for an IT miracle!
