"Packet contains languages not included in installation", Studio 14

Hi,

I have a problem with Studio 14: I've set it up on a new computer, got the license sorted and everything and wanted to use it just now with a packet and it tells me that the packet cannot be opened because it contains languages not included in the installation.
Granted, I didn't pay close attention during the set up process, so I have no idea whether I did something wrong there or how to solve it.Uninstall and reinstall?

Grateful for any advice.

  • Hi ,

    You will have to first find out what languages are included in the package.

    You can do this by installing PackageReader, a free app available on the SDL AppStore, to download here:

    PackageReader

    Click on Download; Login with your SDL user ID; Select the latest version; then it will download.

    Unzip the download zip; right-click on PackageReaderSetup.exe and select 'Run as Administrator'; Yes

    The following will appear:

    Untick 'Open packages in PackageReader' if you don't want it to automatically open every package you receive (at least I think that's what it means); Click 'Install PackageReader now'.

    To use it, click on it in your programs list; select 'Open package now'; navigate to the package

    This screen will appear and you'll see the languages and content of the package:

     

    If you have to work with the package as it is then yes, uninstall and reinstall making sure you include the languages you see in this screen in the 5 you have to select when installing.

    Alternatively, if the client has included the wrong language/s in the package, they must send you a package that includes the right languages for you.

    All the best,
    Alison

  • Hi Allison,

    thank you for your quick reply. I thought I had picked the same languages as before, but now I wonder.
    I hope I can reach the client as the project is due on Monday morning...
