How do I import or create 2015 Trados Multitermbase files to 2022 Trados Multitermbase

Dear Community, 

Hello,

Since my pc got broken and I found out that my 2015 Trados studio can't transfer to my new PC, I purchased and installed 2022 Trados to my computer. Even after removing old termbase application and installing New Multi Termbase, the old green logos of 2015 version of Multiterm base files are still on the desk top and can't open with the new termbase application?

Could any one kindly tell me how to convert 2015 termbase files to 2022 version and I can use them as I used before?

Best,

Aki

    I'm not sure why you could not take your 2015 version to your new computer... but I guess this isn't relevant anymore.

    First of all there is no conversion necessary.  You should be able to use termbases created in 2009 and still work with them today without having to make changes.  All you need to do is copy the *.sdltb files from your old computer to your new computer.

    Next, make sure you have installed these versions of the software:

    Trados Studio 2022 - 17.1.6.16252
    MultiTerm 2022 - 17.1.1.2185

    Then just open MultiTerm, select one of your termbases and try to open it.  If it won't please provide details of what you're seeing on the screen.  Or even zip up one of your *.sdltb files and attach it to this forum when you replay so we can check it for you.
