Hi Asarudeen! These details really help!
If you’re seeing a red X, the image may be corrupted in the file. Here’s what I recommend:
- Delete the image with the red X.
- Go to Insert → Picture.
- Reinsert the original image file instead of copying or duplicating it.
If it’s happening on multiple slides, reinsert each affected image individually.
After that, do a Save As with a new file name. This helps Storyline rebuild the project file cleanly.
If you’re still seeing the issue, would you mind sharing the .story file? You can share it publicly in this thread or privately in a support case.
