Can Studio 2019 Freelance Plus and Studio 2019 Professional work side by side? Is it the same download?

The file to download for both versions (SDLTradosStudio2019_29074.exe) seems to be identical. I tried to remove the Pro version to no avail. What am I missing?

Error message during SDL Trados Studio 2019 setup stating 'Setup did not complete. The error is: Setup has detected a higher version of this product already installed. If you still wish to install this version, you must remove the other version first.' with an OK button.

Thanks.

  • Hi ,

    Open the version of Studio that you have activated (freelance) and deactivate the license- Help/Product Activation.
    Now Studio should close- when you reopen Studio- you should now be given the option to reactivate.
    If the same error message pops up again-
    Then try the following (Studio must be closed)- Go to >
    C:\ProgramData|SDL\SDLtrados Studio\Studio5|Data and rename the Studio.lic file (add old or something)- the Right click Studio and restart.
    Should this still fail-then please do log a ticket- it would be good to understand what the issue though was.
