Trados confirms all segments

Dear All,

 

I work with Trados 2017. There's this thing that keeps happening to me and that is driving me round the bend: 

I seem to be hitting some weird combination of keys that causes Trados to mark all segments as translated, even empty ones. I know how to undo the damage (just change segment status), but what I'd really like to know is: What's causing it? Is there a key combination or button that I am inadvertently hitting?? 

 

Grateful for any ideas on what's going on...

Silvia

  • Close the file without saving, as unconfirming the segments might be impossible. In case you have already saved, start with a clean file and use TM.
    To avoid in the future, go to File -> Options -> Keyboard shortcuts and remove the shortcut for "Confirm all". Shortcuts are sorted alphabetically, so finding that is very simple.
