Manually delete old .tmp files from hidden folder to free up disk space!
I have spent several weeks trying to figure out why my 260GB C drive was grinding to a halt whilst actively building Storyline courses... I have all SL files and all other system data loaded onto my D drive (1TB), but because Articulate software has to be installed on the C drive, this is where is loads all temporary files when the programme crashes.
Storyline crashes regularly, probably every 15 to 20 minutes, it only happens on my new top-end laptop, as I think the Articulate software is a little old now! I found that if I regularly exit and save the application every 15 minutes or so (and regularly save in between), then I don't get caught out.
However, it does catch me out now and again and over 6 months or so I found (through a local computer firm called Alcom who ran diagnostics) that over 160Gb of temporary files were on my C drive... hence the slow decline of my system performance and only a few Mbs left on my C drive.
Have removed all temporary files and hey ho... system now okay.
Storyline is a great product, but you guys really need to invest in bringing the architecture/software it into the 21 Century!
