Within my SoftChalk Cloud account, I downloaded a .zip file for my lesson. I extracted this folder on my desktop outside of SoftChalk Create. When I open this lesson in Create my activities cannot be edited. What should I do?


If you want to work with a local copy of your lesson on your computer that you have downloaded from the Cloud, please do the following:

  • Rather than extracting your .zip outside of SoftChalk Create, please start Create and choose File/Open Packaged lesson and select the .zip file you downloaded from your Cloud account.
  • A lesson folder appears on your computer with the name of your lesson (rather than the lesson id numbers and letters that appeared on your .zip file).

We recommend always opening a zip file of a lesson using File/Open Packaged Lesson to ensure activities can be edited and work properly when opened.
