I am having the same problem!

I am having the same problem!

Maria, I received an email saying that the maintenance is finished, and my Trados works again as it should.

If you are still having problems and need to use Trados until there is a better response, you can block the outgoing connection from Trados in Windows 10.

- Turn off Trados -> open Control panel -> Windows defender Firewall -> Advanced settings (on the left side),

- In the window for advanced settings, click outbound rules (left side) -> New rule (on the right side),

- Choose "Program" -> "This program path", click browse and locate your Trados exe-file (I think Usually in C:\Program Files (x86)\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio 16) -> click OK.

- Start Trados. Should work, at least it did for me.

Later, to remove this rule, just go into outbound rules, select the rule you created and click delete.

Thanks so much Phillip, I shall try that rule yes. I have just tried and really if I tick OK in the error message window Trados disappears.   The strange thing is I am not connected with Language Cloud!  But it does show up in the settings.

Thanks a lot for your help. I have to work on my project,,, a lot to do today still and I am delayed because of this...

Maria, yes! I had the same problem, even though I was logged out of Language Cloud, and Trados turned itself off when clicking the OK button.

Note that with the added rule, you won't be able to use MT services that need a connection such as MyMemory etc. But better than nothing, I guess.

I also see that there are people who are having issues logging into Language Cloud through Trados. For now, my language cloud works fine.
