Manually delete old .tmp files from hidden folder to free up disk space!
Hi Diane,
We don't recommend storing your working files or the temp folders and files on a non local drive (like your C drive) as that can lead to issues with file latency and ultimately corruption. The temp files are created in the event of a Storyline crash when you've enabled the auto recovery mode but they are safe for you to delete if you are no longer working on that project or if they're clogging things up.

By "non local drive" do you mean an external drive? I agree. I certainly wouldn't want to do that.
However, my development computer has two local drives: one is a solid state drive (SSD) with a maximum capacity of 120 GB that is use for my operating systems (and unfortunately Office, since Microsoft won't allow installation on anything but C:/), and a hard drive drive (HDD) with 500GB of storage capacity that I use as often as possible for installing programs, caching, temp files, and all my production files.
Both the SSD and HDD are local drives. However Storyline 2 is only using the SSD for its temp files. Can I make SL2 point to the HDD instead (since it's a local drive)?
