'The file is corrupt or created on an earlier version of Storyline'
Dear Community,
I am supposed to update some training content but sadly I can't open the file - I get a message saying that either the file is corrupt or created on an earlier version of Storyline...

that mean in the most cases - storyline was disturbed while writing the file and had created a incomplete zip (=story) file
you can check your file with 7z (https://www.7-zip.org) -> "Test archiv"
if you get such an error message (Data error) - the file is gone, you need another backup
sometimes it is possible to repair the file with winrar
@articulate: this is an error in storyline for more than 8 years !!!
