Try using Ctrl+N as the shortcut to create a new Project.  You may be starting the process to create a cloud project without realising and then something is going wrong.

If that doesn't work try resetting 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\Studio16

So the path would become this:

c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16_old

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

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your prompt reply!

Neither solves the problem. I tried with Ctrl+N but the same error appeared. Then I found the Studio 16 folder on the path you indicated but the error appeared again.

Hope there are some other ways to try fix this problem?

Go to File -> Setup -> Project templates. Remove all templates there and then import one from here: C:\Program Files (x86)\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16\ProjectTemplates

Take either the Default or the SDL Trados, then try again.

Thank you, Jerzy!

All works fine now!

Hello Zoran, I have followed the above instructions provided by Jerzy but unfortunately in my case they have not been successful.

The first problem I found was that it was impossible to delete every template from the Project Template pannel. I could remove all of them except the Default one. I tried to eliminate it manually from the file where it was stored but still the solution did not prove to be successful.

Since you said "All works fine now" I suppose you have definately solved this annoying issue.

Can you tell me exactly what you did and which procedure you have followed?
I thank you in advance for your help!

Hello Jerzy,

I have followed your instructions but the problem is still there.

When I try do delete all templates from the Tamplate Pannel, I get the message warning me that the Default Template cannot be deleted.

I tried to import one template from the folder you have mentioned above but the result is always the same, IMPOSSIBILITY to create a New Project.

Can you please suggest further solutions. This situation is frustrating!!!
I thank you in advance

Paolo

Import a project template from the folder I mentioned. Declare this one to be default, remove all other. Restart Studio. Now it should work.

Dear Paolo,

Yes, it definitely solved the issue.

I just did what Jerzy told me to - removed all templates and imported them from the path he indicated, and, then, after restart, all worked fine.

I see that Jerzy has just put a new explanation, hope it helps you finally solve the problem.

Best regards,

Zoran

Hi Zoran,

As I said when I try to delete all templates (as suggested by Jerzy) I get prompted with a message advising me that the DEFAULT TEMPLATE CANNOT BE REMOVED.

For this reason I have cancelled all other templates present in the folder except the default one, since I haven't been allowed to remove it.

Have you been able to remove them all as suggested by Jerzy, including the default one? If you have been successful in doing that, then I wonder why I was not!!!! Have you carried out a specific procedure to achieve that goal?

I have tried to import a template form the specific folder mentioned by Jerzy then I have set it as defoult but nothing seems to work!! The problem remains. I am really curious to know why in my case that solution is not working.

I am addressing to you and to Jerzy as well, please let me know if you think that I can solve the problem in a different way.

I thank you in advance

Paolo

Hello Jerzy,

The solution you have proposed is not working in my case, can you please suggest me something different?

Do you have any idea why your solution is not effective on my computer?

I thank you in advance

Paolo

Hi Paolo

Sorry, without a chance to look at your PC I have no possibility to add any hint.

Maybe Paul can help here.
