Issue

Solutions

Solution 1: Repair the 64-bit JVM.

  1. Open the AdobeCaptivate.ini file (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 6 x64) and add Use32BitJVMForPublish = 1

  2. Close and relaunch Adobe Captivate.

  3. Publish your project again.

Solution 2: Remove invalid characters in text fields of the project.

  • Re-install Captivate.

Solution 5: Check if there is any special character in Windows username.
