Hi Sylvia,
With Adobe Flash being discontinued, there are certain elements of legacy apps such as Storyline 2 which will no longer work. As a result of Adobe's decision to end support for Flash, we also choose to end support for tools like Storyline 2 at the same time. You can read more about this in our article on How the End of Flash Affects Articulate Tools and Apps.
You could look at publishing the course to Web and use that as a "preview" version, but depending on how often you preview, it may be an extra lift!
Ultimately, I recommend upgrading to Storyline 3 or Articulate 360 (which includes both Storyline 360 and Studio 360) as these apps don’t have any Flash dependencies and their HTML5 output works in all modern browsers. I'm happy to put you in touch with one of my colleagues to talk through upgrade options!
