Hi ActivePresenter Team,

When exporting a project as **SCORM 1.2** in ActivePresenter, I noticed that besides the **test.zip** package, an additional folder named **player** is also created.

I’m a bit confused about its purpose.

- Why is the **player** folder generated?

- Is it required for uploading to an LMS, or should I only use the **test.zip** file?

- In which scenarios would the **player** folder be used?

Thanks in advance for clarifying.

Hi Alice,

For uploading to an LMS, you only need to use the generated **`test.zip`** package.

The additional **`player`** folder is not required for LMS upload and can be ignored. All the files needed for the course are already included in the ZIP package.

Thanks for pointing this out. We’ll review whether generating this additional folder is necessary in future releases.

Regards,  
Hoa
