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

Question

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.

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.

Hi 
 
This error has been logged and will be corrected in a future release... not the next one as I believe this is already to late.

Hi Pavel Tsvetkov 
 
can you tell me if the location you are saving the project is on a different drive or a network location? If it is the workaround is most likely to save the project to the same drive as Studio is installed.

Hi Paul, 
 1. Trados is installed on drive C: (an SSD with just Windows 10 and other installed programs on it) and the project is on drive D: (HD with my data), none is a network drive. 
 2. By the way, I was able to solve the problem while waiting for an answer :) I just added the first file, not all four of them and I was able to proceed with the next step. 
 I am planning on adding the remaining three files when the project has been created successfully. 
 Best regards,

Hello Nuno Filipe , 
 
This was a bug in a previous release and was fixed with the latest update. 
Please rune the update on both Studio and Multiterm and you should no longer have any problems.

Trados Studio > 1. Trados Studio
