The Usage of Trados Studio on varied domains

Question

Hello everyone, 
 
 I am experiencing an issue with Trados Studio 2024. Specifically, I am unable to activate my freelance subscription on my business computer, which I use for both personal and business tasks. This limitation is preventing me from utilizing the application across varied domains. 
 Could you please assist me with resolving this activation issue? I need to send my Return Package and xBench report by Tuesday at the latest. 
 Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could explain what exactly a "Return Package" and an "xBench report" entail, as I am not very familiar with using Trados. I thought the Return Package is the trados studio project file, however I don't have any idea what xBench report is.

Thank you for your assistance! 
 Best, 
 &Ccedil;ağıl

Hi Çağıl Zehni 
 It's simply not possible to use a Freelance subscription/license on a domain-based network. The disclaimer is on our website: Note: Trados Studio Freelance will not run on company networks (Domain-Based). If you require your license to run on a company network, please contact us to find out more about Trados Studio Professional. 
 To create a return package: 1) Open package from the start page. 2) It appears in the projects' list. 3) Translate all of the files of the project. 4) Go back to the project list. Click on the icon &bdquo;Create Return Package&rdquo; (it is active only if the project has been activated by double click on it). 5) Save the project file. 
 To create a Xbench report, you need this app https://appstore.rws.com/Plugin/2 but there is no compatible 2024 version. So maybe use a Trados 2022 version. You can use it in trial mode https://downloadcentercdn.sdl.com/TP/Trados/T2022/Studio/CUs/SR2_CU10/TradosStudio2022_SR2_CU10_19084.zip
