Opening corrupt file

Hi, Jeffrey -- Thanks so much for your question and I'm really sorry to hear about your troubles. With respects to file corruption, there may still be a working version of your project in your temp files. Here's how to check:

1) Open this folder in Windows Explorer: %appdata%\Articulate\Storyline

2) Scan the contents of this folder for a file that starts with the name of your project. If you find one, copy it to your desktop. If you find more than one, copy the latest version to your desktop.

3) Change the file extension of the copy on your desktop from *.tmp to *.story.

4) Double-click the file to open it in Storyline.

You may also want to see this article for details additional troubleshooting steps that may help, and here is another post on a similar topic that you may want to review. 

Please let us know if you are all set or still need more help! :)

Thanks, but the file does not exist.

My hard drive crashed a few weeks ago and my backup apparently does not include everything.

Thanks for your help.
