Question

Reverse engineering a .CPTX file out of a .ZIP file

We have some old Captivate courses running on our LMS that are in a zipped format. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate the source .CPTX files that were used to create them due to the loss of a server. Is there a way to reverse-engineer CPTX files out of a zipped files? Even if it isn't 100% effective if it saves us having to recreate the courses from scratch, that would be great. Thank you.

    Those zipped files probably have only the published output files. There is no way to recover the raw cptx files from them. Depending on the amount of interactivities you could capture parts of with Video Demo but that will only be passive.
