Due to essential maintenance, access to Trados cloud will be unavailable on Saturday 30 August from 00:00 to 12:00 UTC.

I have installed Trados Studio 2015 on a new computer but Trados cannot find any of the projects from my old computer. Please help!

All of the old project-files have been moved to the new computer.

    This is normal behavior because you can store your projects wherever you want, which means that Studio on the new PC does not know where to look for your projects.

    Usually, one only needs to reopen the few projects that have not been finished on the previous installation (and not the already completed projects). The easiest way therefore is to simply manually open the project(s) you want to work on using the command "Open Project" and navigating to the folder in which you have stored your projects (the one you copied over to the new PC).

    An alternative is to use the Open Exchange app "Studio Migration Utility", which you can find here.

    But I would recommend this only if you need to migrate many projects plus some other settings, otherwise simply open the projects you want to work on.
