Trados 2024 ugs with Language Weaver and more

Hi all,

Previously (in Trados Studio 2022) I could add Language Weaver to the engine defined in the cloud, but now (in Trados Studio 2024) I can only add it to the project as a local plug-in, and in addition this plug-in does not always work, and often throws feedback errors. To temporarily avodi throwing these errors I need to restar my machine few times. I really need to have working cloud engine with Languwage weaver as before.

This is annoying and reduces the efficiency of work. I do not understand why willing community members did not test the new version of the software before its release - such are usually the best practices of software development.

Two other problems I noticed so far are:

- if I add one file in the cloud, it is not downloaded to the local instance of Trados Stusio 2024. For this I have to add more files and then they ate only daownload.
- qus.ite often after translating the whole file (100%) nd after closing it you can only see a partial progress bar, e.g. 30%. I have to reopen the file, save it again and then the progress bar returns to normal.

This new software has its advantages, of course (although I haven't noticed any), but it is certainly full of bugs.

As I wrote some time ago, with a certain project I had problems with processing files uploaded to the project in the cloud. I had to upload probably 5 or 6 times the same file with the next version number, although it would have been obvious to add a function to delete files from cloud projects for a user with root privileges, and I am strongly disappointed that there is still no such option in Trados Studio 2024. I do not see any real explanation why as the creator of the project in the cloud and its only owner and user, I cannot fully mange my files. It is quite absurd and annoying.

tisis example froma last moment. Few hours Ago I uploaded more files as you see in the screnshot:

Screenshot of Trados View Project page showing a list of files with their status. Multiple files are circled indicating an issue with their progress not being updated.

After four hours files are still not uploaded to local instance of a program:

Screenshot of Trados Studio with two windows open. The left window shows files with 100% progress, while the right window shows the same files with 0% progress, indicating a synchronization issue.

After restart local instannce o Trados Studio 2024 I still cannot see uploaded new files and beside progress od last fle went backkcward although file is done:

Screenshot of Trados Studio with a file list. One file is highlighted showing 39% progress, contradicting its earlier 100% completion status, suggesting a progress tracking error.

Kind regeards,

    Your title here implies challenges you face when working with Language Weaver yet your post is all about project file management / process.
    Let me first address your project file management / process as it seems to be the key focus of this post.

    I am not able to reproduce what you are describing here below

    if I add one file in the cloud, it is not downloaded to the local instance of Trados Stusio 2024. For this I have to add more files

    However my projects where created in LC, and would be deemed new.
    The minute they hit the translation stage, they show in Studio. 

    Where are your projects crated?
    Is the project still in a in progress state?
    Is the problem reproducible in both new projects as well as legacy projects?
    Presumably this was not an issue in Trados Studio 2022?

    Have you tried to delete LanguageCloudMachineTranslation.bin from C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Trados\Trados Studio\Studio18

    When it comes to Language Weaver - I will tackle this in this post Local tanslation plugins do not work

  • Hi

    I create my projects in the cloud on my personal account in the Projects tab. I've been dooing this way for along time and mostly everytnig wa o.

    The project files that are not beeing downloade are already on translation state.

    I do not have lagacy projects, so I cannot tell.

    Yes when I got back to Trados Studio 2022 problem disspeared. The re in also no progrem w with progress bar, who wsa oing back to early steges in Studio 2024 

    Have you tried to delete LanguageCloudMachineTranslation.bin from C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Trados\Trados Studio\Studio18

    I have not, since after going back to Studio 2022 I got rid of this problems.

    Best regards,

  • But I forgot about the functionality of deleting files from the cloud project. Bad processed files clutter whole project. I really do not usderstand, why this functionality cannot be added for root user. I had a project in which I had dozen of bad processed files on my list and it was confusing, cause I had problems with finding the riht files.

    This would really, I mean really help. I Iave this issue in my current project:

    Screenshot of a cloud project file list with multiple files marked as 'bad processed'. The interface shows options like 'Open for Review' and 'Explore Containing Folder' at the top. A user named Lech Lachowski is logged in.

    As You see I have four bad pocessed files already and I connot do anythig to removethem from the list.

    Best regards,
