Studio 2019. Error: "The project must include at least one translatable file"

This type of error, which does not allow you to continue, is triggered when, after choosing a project template, you decide to change languages. From there, even if you already selected a project file or files, Studio will not recognize it/them. I believe there is some programming logic that is not working here.

 

Information dialog box in Trados Studio stating 'The project must include at least one translatable file' with an OK button.

To circumvent this, simply cancel the operation and restart again a new project. Then, first, go straight to the languages boxes and make the corresponding changes. It is very likely that you need to do this because none of your templates has the language pair you are choosing. Then, instead of hitting "Finish", press "Next" since you will need to add suitable TMs, termbases, etc. If you want to save those project settings as a new template you will have to create a separate new project template in Home / Tasks / Create Project Template.

    For me this error appears regardless of any project templates. I proceed as follows: In the "Just one step" window, I first enter the project name, then add a file to be translated. Next, I set the desired source language. It appears that the fact that I switched source languages AFTER adding the file for translation, messed something up and caused this error, because if I add the file as the last step, after setting the language, the error will not occur. Once I have my project templates set up I probably will not see the error anymore as I will no longer have to switch languages manually. At least there is now a way for me to avoid it. I hope this helps!
