Hello,

I am sorry to ask a question which has already been asked on this forum but as the proposed solution does not work for me, I hope that there might be another solution.

I work with Trados Studio 2019.

I am trying to open a project package.

When I click on the project, the error "Unespected exception when creating view part control for view part Notifications" is shown and the project does not open.

I tried the following solution:

1. Close all SDL applications.
2. Go to the following folder:
   • SDL Trados Studio 2021:
     • Windows 7/8/10: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16
   • SDL Trados Studio 2019:
     • Windows 7/8/10: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\15.0.0.0
     NOTE: If you do not find this folder, make sure that these files are not hidden. See KB article Showing hidden files, folders and extensions on Windows operating systems
    
3. Rename the following XML files (for example, add an underscore before/after the file name):
   • BaseSettings.xml
   • Plugincache.xml
   • UserSettings.xml
4. Restart Trados Studio.

So, I renamed the three files by adding an underscore at the end but the problem is still the same. I have been struggling for half a day already so I am wondering if the best solution is to de-install/re-install Trados...

Many thanks for your help, in case you have another suggestion what I might try.

Kind regards,

Lucia
