Trados Studio 2017

Lissy Wei

Since I've installed the upgrade from Trados Studio 2015 to 2017 I've got problems. No other version has ever disappointed me as much. It takes time to research the translations in the TM and the worse, for about one week or so, it freezes somewhere in any document, no matter which one. I've tried to find a solution, but without success. Working like this is inefficient and unnerving. I have experienced this problem in at least 10 different files coming from different sources, generally docx. but from different customers. Now I'm unable to use Trados and I'm asking myself why I've paid so much money for 2 licences.

I've tried to find errors in the source files, I've repaired the software, I've uninstalled and reinstalled it, I've even restored my Windows 10 system to a previous date. No success.

Can sb help please?

 

Thank you

    Of course is Windows 10 not an older OS. But you mentioned CTRL+ALT+DEL, and this was used for Task Manager only in older Windows versions. To get Task Manager showing in Windows 10 (it started to be so AFAIR in Win7) you need to press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC, this is why I supposed an older Windows. You told us, you need to kill the Studio process - and I assumed you would refer to calling up the Task Manager with your shortcut.
    Returning to your problem: does Studio behave the same way on all your PCs? This would really be strange, but then there must be another software (anti virus is a good tip), same on all your PCs, which does interfere with Studio. Without studying the configuration of you computers I'm afraid no one will really be able to help.

    Don't know about Win10 (and I truly hope to NOT know for as long as possible), but in Win7 you definitely don't NEED to press Ctrl-Shift-Esc to run Task Manager... you CAN of course run Task Manager from the "reboot screen" after pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del. And that's how common users do it, no matter which amazing new keyboard shortcuts Microsoft invents.

    And to the original problem - I'm wondering HOW LONG Lissy actually waits before killing Studio from task Manager. It could simply be that Studio needs more time to do its task (e.g. because it's being slowed down by some aggresive antivirus or god-knows-what-else).

    Don't know much about common users. Might be that I'm uncommon, but I'd access the task manager rather directly via CTRL+SHIFT+ESC.

    Again, I'm NOT talking about SLOW DOWN, I'm talking about FREEZING. However, I'm absolutely aware that I'm using Windows 10 (I'm not a newcomer in computer matters....:) )and accessing Task Manager after pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del (I've got the French keyboard here and maybe I did not express myself correctly, because here it is Ctrl. Alt Suppr which corresponds to Ctrl-Alt-Del. Ok, thanks to everybody who tried to help. As soon as I've found the problem, I'll let you know.
