Trados Studio 2019 crashes all the time

Hello. I received this morning a project that I've imported into Trados without any other. It consists of two .docx files that I tried to open at the same time. The problem is that Trados crashes systematically, even when I try to open each file separately. The only way I've found so far is to double-click on each of the two xliff files. Is there anyone who can help me solve the problem? I have the latest version of Trados: 2019 SR2 - 15.2.5.2145. Thank you in advance for your help.

  • Please try the following.

    1. reset Studio.  Rename this folder (just add _old to the end or something, it's not important what you rename it to) and restart Studio:

      c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\15.0.0.0

      So the path would become this:

      c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\15.0.0.0_old

      If you can't find this folder then you need to unhide your hidden files/folders:

    2. run a repair installation of Studio in your windows control panel

    3. create a test project using a brand new empty TM that you create now

    See if this this works.  If it doesn't and you get the same sort of errors then I wuld say this is an installation issue and you should log a case with our support term.

    You have two options:

    1. Submit a case using a webform
    2. Use live chat to get a licence reset

    You want to use the first option and make sure that you refer to this thread so the teams can see what you have tried already.
