SDL Trados Freelance 2019 : Objektverweis nicht auf eine Instanz festgelegt / NullReferenceException / Sdl.Verification.TermVerifier / Term Verifier

Christopher Köbel

Dear all,

I have recently upgraded from Trados Studio 2017 Freelance to the 2019 release and am since plagued by exception errors from the Term Verifier whenever a term is registered in MultiTerm but I chose to use another word. The error shows up when I try to Ctrl+Enter (Confirm and Go To Next Segment).

Screenshot of Trados Studio 2019 showing an exception error from the Term Verifier when confirming a segment with Ctrl+Enter.

I have read the other relevant threads here and tried various fixes proposed there, namely

  • Updating / Repairing Trados 2019 and MultiTerm
  • Renaming the %appdata%\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\15.0.0.0 folder so Trados will generate a new one
  • Reorganizing the relevant termbase(s)
  • Creating a new "Default" project and re-adding all necessary files, TMs and TBs

Yet, to no avail. Should I just wait for Trados 2021 to be downloadable for me and upgrade again, or is there a solution that will fix this annoying behaviour in 2019?
So far, I have always waited until the first service release before upgrading to a new Trados version (out of prior experience), but if this version doesn't work as expected then maybe the next will? I don't think I can go back to 2017 after having upgraded my licence...

Kind regards,
Christopher

    Do you possibly have another machine, where you could test the Studio installation? The error does not appear here, however, due to my language pair, I rarely use the terminology checker, because it is typically useless.

    Studio does leave more "traces" in the system as just the folder which you already reseted. But I think you know that already... If not, there is also a possibility to rename all Studio parts in the registry by placing an underliner in front of the name and then checking again. This could be helpful. But I first would test on another machine.
