I made a program in Scratch Desktop by default it would not save as a .sb3 file. Then when I tried to upload it to Scratch online, nothing would happen. I spent a lot of time making the program on Scratch Desktop. Please help me upload it to the web!

Oh no! Sorry you are having issues uploading files.

Can you say more about

I made a program in Scratch Desktop by default it would not save as a .sb3 file.

What happened by default?

I looked at the file scratch desktop made windows file explorer and it says the file type is just “file”

Are you able to upload the file if you manually edit the file name and add “.sb3” to the end? For example, if your project is named “awesome-cats” rename it to “awesome-cats.sb3”.

No. I tried that too, but to the same result.

Alright, I got it to work. I kept trying to upload it, and one time, it worked. I used the file that did not have the “.sb3” at the end. I don't know what made it work, but it worked.

Oh, yeah! I have the same issue in Scratch Desktop. I think I've only encountered it here because I use it for playing my projects more often. What I do to fix it is to restart the application, and/or try again a few times.

We released a new version of the Scratch Desktop that hopefully will fix this issue. Try to update or delete/reinstall Scratch Desktop.

If you continue to have the same issue, please let us know. Thanks for the patience.

You download the project?

To open a game in scratch desktop…

1. Open Scratch Desktop.
2. Go to your folder and double-click your game.
3. Accept (Click “yes”) that it opens with Scratch Desktop. (this opens a second window in Scratch)
4. Go to the second page of Scratch and “Load from my computer” your game.

It should download now.
