This project is invalid or corrupt and cannot be opened.

My storyline project recent frequently occur below issue:

"This project is invalid or corrupt and cannot be opened. It may have been created in an earlier version of story."

But if the project is still in the recent list, maybe it could be opened again.

And I tried other Storyline developers or bloggers suggestions as below, but sometimes my project could not find the tmp file.

  1. Open your hard drive in Windows Explorer
  2. Open Users > your user name
  3. Select the View tab and, from the Show/hide group, enable Hidden Files
  4. Open the AppData folder
  5. Open the Roaming folder
  6. Open the Articulate folder
  7. Open the Storyline folder
  8. Scan the contents of Storyline folder for a tmp file that starts with the name of the corrupt project.
  9. Copy the newest version of the tmp file to your desktop
  10. Change the file extension of the copy on your desktop from .tmp to .story.
  11. Double-click the .story file to open it in Storyline.
