  • >did you save and exit the changes in the video editor window or did you just close it?
    yes

    >Do you have admin-rights on your machine ?
    yes

    now the test without admin-rights - Storyline 3.65 and Windows 10

    • create a new empty storyline file
    • import a 2 min mp4 file (with audio)
    • Edit Video
    • brightness +50%
    • close window
    • save


    => ERROR

    now the same pc "open storyline.exe" as admin

    => Storyline, stops direct after start screen

    So this video function is not usable on company computer !!!

    Hi Jürgen,

    thanks for your tests. :-)

    My IT-Collegues had testet the function either ...

    @ John Morgan

    ... our IT-Experts found the bug (perhaps): the "encoder.exe (or encoder-5.exe)" is being copied from the "program"-directory to the "user/appdata/..."-directory and storyline tries to start it from there:

    %OSDRIVE%\USERS\047584\APPDATA\LOCAL\TEMP\ARTICULATE\STORYLINE\6EMFZKFE0W

    for details see the screenshot-attachment!

    Our policies don't allow the start from executable-files from the "user/appdata"-directory!!!

    Please discuss this finding with your developer(s).

    Do you have any solution, which fits our needs (no admin-rights)?

    Hi Jürgen,

    articulate will fix the problem in a newer version of storyline 360. Perhaps in january 2022.

    Best regards and many thanks for your assistance :-)
