Files loss

Question

I have lost all the project on my Trados 2015 program. Please give me advice as to how to get them back. I have tried the administrator approach and to access the files on the browser, but I only get error messages. This happened, I think, after an antivirus update. 
 Thank you 
 Peter

What kind of error messages do you get? 
Usually it is enough to double click the corresponding *.sdlproj file of each project to have it registered in Studio.

Look in the main folder of the project, which is one level higher than the en-GB folder you've found. 
There will be a file with the file name extension *.sdlproj - you double click this file. This will register the project in Studio. So then you can open the files for translation from within Studio.

In that very case your sdlproj file is most probably damaged. 
Create a new project, but instead of the source files now take the partially translated sdlxliff files from the target folder of the damaged project as input files. Of course use all the same resources, like TMs and TBs.

Hi Peter Collins 
 can you also check you have the latest version of Studio 2015 installed. I have seen this before in 2015 but thought the cause had been resolved in one of the updates. Latest version is: 
 SDL Trados Studio 2015 SR3 - 12.3.5281.10 SDL MultiTerm 2015 SR2 - 12.2.1657.4

Trados Studio > 1. Trados Studio
