Slow and error messages

Trados was very slow and Catalin did a remote test (case # 00598833). It seem to work at first, but it's back to being sluggish. For some reason, it's still very slow to open when I first click on the Trados icon in the morning. Then when I choose a document to work on, in the "Translation Memory and Document Settings" window, it stalls for quite a few minutes and it displays "Not responding" at the top of the window. Then when it does open, I usually get 2 error messages saying the same thing: "An error has occured while using the translation provider (name of my personal translation memory). The date file engine translation memory returned an error: database is locked." It still allows me to work though...

Also, when I "pre-translate" a file, and reopen it, it still sits at every segment and searches for a translation as if it didn't recognize that the segments are already translated! It's very time-consuming!

Then as the day goes on, it usually speeds up (maybe it's getting a coffee or something!!) :-) but usually not as fast as it used to be.

It's very frustrating when I have a big urgent document first thing in the morning and Trados just sits there, not moving...

When I go in C:/Users/Danielle/Appdata/Roaming/Trados, all the other Trados versions are still there in a folder named "Trados Studio", and there is another folder named "Trados Studio A". I thought that whenever I upgraded, it was supposed to delete the older versions. Could it be a reason why it's so slow? I don't dare delete anything without being sure. Thank you.
