Hello everyone!
I'm trying to add plugins like Antidote and Number Verifier in Studio but I always get this message as soon as I open them :
"No application is configured to open the "Sdl.Community.AntidoteVerifier.sdlplugin" document."
Is it because I'm working on a Mac? I've been using the latest version of Trados Studio via Parallels Desktop and it works super well so far, except for adding plugins.
Thank you in advance for your help!!

This may be because you haven't installed Antidote? If you have it may be because you have this as a MAC application and not Windows.

The number Verifier surely doesn't give you that message! What happens with the Number Verifier?

Hello Paul!
Thank you for your help!
I have installed Antidote on my computer yes. But I'm not sure if I have it has a MAC application or not to be honest.
And I get the same kind of message for Number Verifier : "No application is configured to open the "Sdl.Community.NumberVerifier (1).sdlplugin" document."
Thank you!!
What version of Trados Studio are you running?
What emulation software are you using on your MAC to run Studio?
How did you install the plugins?
What version of Antidote are you running?
But I'm not sure if I have it has a MAC application or not to be honest.
Perhaps this will give you some clue as to whether you installed the MAC version or a Windows version?
Interface Design: Mac applications typically have a distinct aesthetic design in line with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines. This can include unique title bars, buttons, menus, and other UI elements. Windows applications, even if running on Mac via emulation or translation layers, often maintain their Windows look and feel, which can be quite different.
Application Menu: macOS applications typically have their menus integrated into the system-wide menu bar at the top of the screen. On the other hand, Windows applications usually have their menus in the application window itself.
File Extensions: Most Mac apps are distributed as .app bundles, while Windows applications usually have an .exe extension. You can check this by right-clicking on the application and selecting "Show Package Contents". Note, however, this may not be effective for applications running through translation software like CrossOver or emulation via Parallels Desktop or VMware, as the underlying Windows .exe file might be obscured.
Software Used to Run the App: If you used a specific program to run the application (e.g., Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or Wine), it's likely a Windows application. These programs are designed to run Windows software on Mac.
About or Help Menu: Many apps include details about their origin or version information in the "About" or "Help" section of their menu. This information often indicates whether the app was designed for macOS or Windows.

Thank you Paul,
I'm running the trial version of Studio (2022) through Parallels Desktop.
For the plugins I downloaded them from the RWS App Store: https://appstore.rws.com/Plugin/33 
After the download (I tried to save it in various locations), I want to click "open" but this message comes up:
Regarding Antidote, I'm pretty sure that I have it as a Mac application.... but in any case the plugin "Number verifier" is supposed to work either way I think?
Thank you again for your time! 
Audrey

No... nothing related to Trados works either way. Everything must be installed on Windows running in an emulator on your MAC. If you install anything into your MAC and not Windows then you will have problems.

Thank you Paul,
I decided to re download everything to make sure the apps were saved in Windows. "Number verifier" is now integrated in Studio, Antidote as well, so that's progressing! Although now when I click on the "corrector" to run Antidote from Studio ... nothing happens. Also, the option doesn't appear in the top bar, but only when I right click on a segment.
Some screenshots would be helpful. Also have you got the Antidote application running? You need to have this running and Trados Studio... two screens are helpful I think.

Wonderful, thank you for your help, I thought Antidote was running but it wasn't so it started working as soon as I opened the app on Windows.
Many thanks and have a fantastic day!
