Storyline courses saved in Dropbox

Whitney,

I have deleted my previous post after some further research on the matter.

Please see the following link: https://articulate.com/support/article/create-edit-and-publish-articulate-storyline-courses-on-your-local-hard-drive#create 

Please only use storage like Dropbox, Network Drives or USB drives for backup. This will allow you to properly use the files as it is not recommended to use Storyline with network storage.

I don't believe that Carbonite is affecting the Storyline files as you're not accessing those from the Carbonite service, however if you move the file to your local hard drive and continue to see the issue it might be necessary to switch Carbonite from continuous backup to a scheduled backup or to not backup during hours that you're working. These can be done from inside the Carbonite settings on the desktop app. This will ensure that no service is interacting with those files while you're supposed to be on the machine. 

Thanks!

Tyler

Whitney,

Reaching out to follow up on this issue and see if you needed any further assistance. Hope all is well!

Thank You,

Tyler

Thanks for the update on that. I think that answers my question and I thought I remembered hearing something about that once before. Sounds like the best practice is to move all this content over to the local machine.
