64-bit version of Studio

Please create a 64-bit version of Studio. At present only a 32-bit version is available, and therefore it can theoretically only access 2-3GB of system memory, meaning that upgrading your machine with more memory then this does not have any beneficial impact on Studio performance.

When handling large files & projects, allowing Studio access to all of your system's memory would make a huge difference in time and performance, and for this the app needs to be 64-bit.

Are there any plans to release a 64-bit version in future?

  • Please create a 64-bit version of Trados Studio and MultiTerm Desktop in order that the said software could be executed better in Windows 64-bit.

  • This is incredible - this post has been out there for 6 years. There have been several new Trados Studio versions since then and STILL no 64-bit support. MOST of the projects I work with are made up of dozens or even hundreds of XML files, with incredible amounts of cross-file repetitions and I always work on them by opening them all at once. This usually crashes Studio. This happens every single day. No amount of developers sayin there's a workaround or that they are investigating this idea will change the fact that this system has become so unstable due to the RAM restrictions that I am actually really considering stopping buying any future releases - the 2022 version for both myself and my linguists + a GS 2017 will have to suffice.

    The ONLY feature I am looking forward to is the 64-bit support. No bells and whistles, just the thing that you've been contemplating for the past decade. Just do it, for Pete's sake. As evidenced from other users' replies, the 64-bit version is THE priority for the majority of Trados users, and yet you decide to tackle anything and everything else before you get to this. Is the source of the Trados Studio SO unstable that moving to a 64-bit is just impossible? Is that it? Because this seems to be the only reason I could think of - and I have a lot of experience in product development, so I really think this might be the case. But if that is so, just say you'll never prepare a 64-bit version of your software and be done with it.
