Opening Scrivener file I archived in Dropbox

Hi all. I archived an old Scrivener project in Dropbox, but not can’t open it. Not sure how to get the file back into the Scrivener program, but it is urgent I do so. Suggestions?

If that doesn’t help, what exactly happens when you try to open the project.

When you say you archived it, what format?

Is it a project, if so copy the entire project to your local drive and you should be able to open it.

If it’s a .zip backup, extract it to your local drive and open.

Projects must be opened from a local drive (or your Dropbox folder on your local drive). Ensure the folder is set as ‘offline’ in Dropbox
