So previously I downloaded the Storyline 3 trial wanting to see what new features Storyline had to offer. In the process of doing so, my older files reverted to the new format. Because I was the only one on my team who had Storyline 3 (and this was a trial version) I had to go back to the older version for them to view my files. However, Now, I can't view my own Storyline modules because they had been updated to storyline 3 (Mind you not created in Storyline 3. I created nearly all my files in Storyline 2). How can I gain access to my Storyline files again and revert them back to Storyline 2?
when you upgrade a file to Storyline 3 or 360 a backup file is created (same as SL1 to SL2). You should have seen this screen and when you click Upgrade a backup file is created in the same folder as your original file
Double click the backup file or right click and select the 'open with' option to choose SL2
The icon may have changed when you downloading Storyline 3 or Storyline 360 - but the files aren't upgraded until you open the file with the newest version of Storyline.

You can uninstall Storyline 3 and then the icons should show as Storyline 2 again.
