Hi Elke​!

Happy to help!

As you've shared, working off of a network, or shared drive can introduce latency and cause erratic behavior when authoring in Storyline. However, these issues are not irrevocable, and can be corrected by ensuring all of your files (.story and any media) are stored on your local hard drive. Also, for your reference, this article outlines other common causes of file corruption, as well as ways to avoid it.

If you're still noticing unexpected behavior or slowdowns while authoring on your local hard drive, please connect with our team through a support case. They'd be happy to help troubleshoot with you!

    We won't open a storyline-file off of our server again ;)
