Storyline Backup Package

Jul 28, 2016

Is there anything in Storyline that I can use to back up my files? Presenter '09 had the backup package feature, so I'm looking for something like that.

Hi, Amanda -- Are you looking for something along the lines of what was posed here?

And I wanted to note, in the event that you experience corruption or similar, you would also be able to check for temp files as follows: 

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.
