Question

How to show the Tutorials window again when starting Adobe Animate

We just begin using Animate and following the Tutorials that appeared on Animate start up.  However we accidentally closed it. Although we can find the tutorials in the Help menu, my son loves to see the visual representation on Animate start up.  I looked in Preferences but can't seem to quickly find how to show that window again. 

 

Thanks a bunch!

    I also tried this (before in manipulating some files) that I found in another help file in the Adobe Animate help community. 
    I also set Edit -> Preferences -> Beginner Preferences.
     
    hehehehe still can't find out how to again Show the Welcome screen (the original splash screen with the animated view of all hands-on tutorials) but we are making progress 🙂

    Found in another help/forum thread regarding reset preferences and Welcome screen -

        or remove Win:  C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Animate CC <version>\ and

                                      C\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Animate\<version>\

    I'm not sure if my other replies are being posted (and held for review) - so I apologize if there are many.

     

    Thanks you for the reply and the online tutorials! We will use those.

    We can also access the hands-on tutorials from the Help menu.

    I was just trying to see if there was a way to get back the opening splash/start up screen for the Hands-On tutorials as my son is Autistic and used to the known ways he was used to accessing the tutorials. But we have also learned to adjust to when things change.

     

    But figured I'd ask the community as I'm not having any luck yet.

     

    Thanks,

    Heather and Luke 🙂

    it's easier and more reliable to use the online tutorials.

    Hi Kglad,

    Yes, I can find tutorials through the Help -> Online Tutorials and Hands-on Tutorials.
    Just trying to get the splash screen up again upon opening Animate.  

    Thx,

    Heather (and Luke)
