Storyline won't publish to MS Word

I am no longer able to publish my Storyline courses to MS Word this started when I had Storyline 3 and continues even now that I have 360.

When I publish to Word and click the view document button, nothing happens. Plus, when looking in the folder where it's supposed to publish to, the file's not there. 

Another issue is that Storyline will not record MS Word screens. I can record any other screen or software but not Word.  So it seems like Storyline and Word are refusing to work together.

I have installed and reinstalled both Storyline and Word but this did not help.

  • Hello Everyone! ✨

    I'm happy to share that we have released a new update for Storyline 360 (Build 3.78.30680.0).

    In this update, we have implemented a fix for:

    • Storyline 360 didn't always generate an error when projects failed to publish to Word.

    As a first stepI recommend updating Storyline 360 to the latest version. Here's how:

    Update Authoring Apps

    If you have any questions on Update 78, please let us know in this thread or privately in a support case.

    Have a great day!

  • So it is apparent the issue is with Windows 11, we have tested with both Win 10 and 11, works with 10, fails with 11. Is there a work around as of yet or where is Articulate working on resolving as we rely on this for creating print files which is mandatory for all of the courses we develop. 

  • When are we going to be able to export from Storyline as a current version of Word?

      Hi BJ,

      We don't have any new updates to share on when the .DOCX format will be available for the Word export feature. I've added your voice to the feature request and we'll let you know when it gets added to our product roadmap!
