Hello, 

I don't even know how to explain the problem, so searching for it was going to be much harder. I apologize if there i a similar discussion already up. 

I am trying to open a file, but when I am unzipping the file, it is everything but a storyline file. I am not sure what has happened and if I am able to retrieve anything from it.

Hello Sneha and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)

Thanks for reaching out and sharing what you are running into as well as sharing the image of what you are seeing.

We are looking at the published output contents in this image. 

The published output does not include a copy of the original project file.

Is this a file that you created or was this sent to you? You will need a .story file extension that was worked on within the Storyline software if you wish to continue working on it.

The zipped published output, which in this case has been published to LMS format, is ready to be shared with your LMS team for upload. You can then view the content once uploaded if you were looking for a finished product to view.

Let me know if there is anything further I can help with.
