Extracting a story file from a zip file
How do I extract a story file from a zip file?

If the file was zipped by publishing it, you can't. Sorry.
If it had its extension changed from .story to .zip, you can rename it and change the extension back, but that seems unlikely.
(I feel like Im missing something as this feels too easy for a question.... the QI claxon is about to go off!)
How to unzip a file within a zip file?.... Winzip?!
Within Windows (I think 9 or 10 and above), it’s built in. You can double click the zip, and see what is in it. Pick the file, right click and choose Extract. Or Select the zipped folder without double clicking , right click and choose Extract all.
I have been thinking about creating an app that converts SCORM zip packages to PowerPoint (ppt,pptx) and then the PowerPoint can be re-imported into Articulate. I realize that the triggers would not carry over but they could be copied back in after the transfer. It would save a lot of time from having to rebuild the course from scratch. Is this something that you guys would find helpful? I wanted to ask before spending the time making it.
