Hello! I have my story installed on a local C disc. I do have one more local disc E and it has more space. I build my courses on E and save them on E. I even moved my Articulate projcets folder to E. But I see that every time I save my project it somehow makes a copy (that I can't identify) on C as well. It couses me real trouble as I can't save big projects though I work on E. The result is that I barely have space on C and lot of space on E but it seems to be useless. What do I do wrong? Please help me
This is a very strange issue. I don't believe Articulate saves multiple copies of the files but perhaps it is in your case. Let's try and find the files on the C Disc so we can move or delete them and clear up some space.
Open up your C:/ drive and let's do a search for the Storyline files. In the top right of the explorer window you can type in *.story and press enter. This will do a search for all of the Storyline project files on the local C Disc. I have attached a screenshot showing you this. From there you can see where they are located on the C Disc and either move them to E or delete them if they are duplicates. If the search doesn't find any Storyline files on the C Disc we'll have to look at what else may be using up the space.
I promised to give feedback. It wasn't so dangerous as I thought it might be. I did have little space and it caused troulbe for saving. But Story doesn't have any hidden copies:)
Thanks for the update Olga and glad you were able to get your files saving. Did you look at changing the install location for Storyline as detailed here? Perhaps that would help with your space issues?

Let me know what you find.
Thank you Jon!
I will try it and I'll let you know the results.
Best regards
