Hello!
Just a small technical question: I am using Trados 2021, but I realized that I still have also the older 2019 version installed. Since ?m gaving disk space problems, can I disinstall version 2019 without affecting version 2021?
Thanks for a tip
Valeria

Thank you again, Paul!
Jerzy / Paul,
now that I have the 2022 version, I'm having both the problem with the Find and Replace window that stays always on top and the program closed by itself 3-4 time during work without apparent reason.
I wanted to reinstall from scratch the previous version (2021), thinking that I can keep 2 versions active, right? But - to my big surprise - the 2021 version is no longer available in my SDL Account. How can that be? I should have it, right? Can you tell me what is happening?
Thanks
Valeria
The search and replace window is staying in front by design. You can easily close it, pressing ESC after use and call again pressing CTRL+F (for find) or CTRL+H (for replace). When done, press ESC and the problem disappears.
Trados Studio should not crash that often. It is a very stable version, I can keep it open without switching off my PC for several days... What are the specs of your computer? Were you able to solve the disk space problem? To low disk space causes instability of the whole system, not only Trados Studio. And Windows really needs space... A lot of, TBH. Having less than 20 GB free is a big problem. I would advise to keep at least 50 GB of disk space completely free in order to have your system running smoothly.
I have tried to explain several times now that the find/replace problem is a problem that has to be resolved in the product. You cannot fix it unless you use a solution (if you can make it work) with something like AutoHotkey which can run a script to suppress the window from always being on top. There is no point asking in every post how to fix this.

Right.

Seems to be there when I look?
You purchased an upgrade to 2022 which means that your 2021 licence is replaced with thee 2022 version. You cannot licence 2021 with this. However, if you go to your licences tab and show the details you will see this:
That means that you can install 2021 on the same computer as the one you have a licenced and activated 2022 on, and when you start it up it will draw the activation from the fact 2022 is licenced. You do not have to add the activation code at all.
This does not mean that the 2022 version has to be running, it does not. But it must be licenced.
So now you know what is happening I hope?
