Finding SL File
I have been asked to send a review link of a Storyline presentation I created back in 2021. I cannot find the SL file anywhere. I have the File Folder - Storyline output (not zip) and I thought I could get to the SL file that way, but I have clicked on everything in that folder. Am I out of luck? I have looked in every folder I can think of to find the SL file.
I have searched questions and answers and I saw something about searching for a tmp folder but I have no idea how to do that. I copied what was provided to look in here: %appdata%\Articulate\Storyline
Thanks,
Sheri

I would recommend searching "ext:story", to pull up on .story files on your computer; but the story is not saved with the output. It is a separate file and they can get lost. My team has implemented a project folder system, where we create a folder whose name matches the course in the LMS, and there in have the .story, a PDF from the Word publication, the .zip, and an assets folder which contains all of the materials used to author the story. We then add the project folders to a drive, and "rent" them out to make Agile updates.

Thank you for responding. I tried to look for .story files and I did not come up with it. I looked in every file I have. I ended up putting in a ticket with IT so I am hoping they can find it. Thank you for sharing how your team saves the storyline content. I definitely need to come up with a system as I have things all over the place. Thanks again!
