 It helps to know which version you have, but if languages are missing I assume it's an old one. So... here's how to reset Freelance languages for Studio 2017/2019. 
 
 Close Studio. 
 Hold down the windows key and press R. (or right click the start/windows button and select Run). 
 For Studio 2017 paste in this: reg delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\LDSRClient5 /f 
 Press ok. 
 Restart Studio. 
 For Studio 2019 paste in this: reg delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\LDSRClient15 /f

 Not really helpful... you've tried to unzip an sdlxliff! I thought we were talking about a project package (*.sdlppx) not a single sdlxliff file: 
 
 If this is what you received, rather than a project package, then open the sdlxliff with a text editor and see what it says in the file element at the top: 
 
 I'm interested in the source and target language. 
 On the languages you have installed... are you showing that you just have English, French and Italian installed?

 Karin Svanback said: It is a little complicated when I first installed the 5 languages I choose Italian (Italy), French (France), en-US, en-UK, and Danish (Denmark). But when I changed computer and took Trados from the old computer to the new, I read it was perhaps possible to choose English and get all the dialects in order to add Norwegean (Norway) as a fifth language. But, I learned you could not do that, and here I am. (There is a Swedish saying who wants too much often gets nothing). Thank you so much again!!!! 
 So... when you choose your languages you only need to select the main language. So you select English (any English) and you get all 60+ variants. You select any French and you get all the French etc. Yo do not need to add a specific variant. If you do select a variant it WILL COUNT as a language from your available five. So select en-GB and en-US and you just chose two languages. I hope this bit is clear? 
 However, you could choose Italian, French, English, Danish and Norwegian. But then you still won't be able to open that SDLXLIFF file as it was EN-SV. If you upgrade to 2022 however you won't need to worry and you'll be able to open any language combination and will never be asked to choose your languages again. Otherwise you will have to keep resetting your languages and choosing different ones to work on the language pair you need. 
 Make sense?

 Karin Svanback said: I can settle with the 5 source languages I choose from the beginning en-US, en-UK, French, Danish and Italian. 
 I think you are confused. It is not 5 source languages. It is just 5 languages.= in any combination. So any one of them could be source but each project can only ever contain these languages. So handling that Swedish file will never work! 
 Karin Svanback said: Anyway I cannot afford an upgrade for 1000 euro right now 
 Current price is more like 400 euros from 2019. However, this is exactly why it makes sense to have a support contract so you only ever pay the 100 ish euros a year and you always the upgrades included in addition to support. Easier to manage as a business expense when you always know to budget for it.

 This whole thread, before you changed the subject was about that topic. The answer is here in this thread: RE: Languages are missing they end with Italian (Vatican City) and languages are not configured for the installation
