Hello Kimberley D'Hoore ,

The problem here appears to be the naming of the TWO 'default' templates itself, as both have identical 'descriptions' but very different locations.

Where are your projects stored? Locally or on OneDrive?

If you are synching everything with OneDrive, please disable this.

Now if you edit (change) the template name (each should be unique)and save, you should now have the option of which template to use and when.

Hello Steven,

My projects are saved locally in the documents folder but there is also a documenten(Dutch) which is the folder where it keeps creating a clean, default project template. I just disabled the documenten folder from syncing, removed the Project template from that folder and even renamed the folder all together but it didn’t help. If I delete everything and set it up the way it should be, it looks like this

The second I restart trados however it creates a new project templates folder in Documenten and this happens. I don’t get why it keeps creating a folder there. Mind you documents has that folder so its just making a random clean duplicate even though the project setting is set to the Documents folder.

And this is the only folder and files it keeps creating

Hope this explains the situation.

I'd just change the default template to whatever you wish and forget about the folder C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Studio 2019\Project Templates. It'll be recreated every time you delete it. Instead, import the template and press the Default button.

About your second question, I don't quite understand what you need (apply changes to the dictionary). Also the CTRL+F you mentioned is the common Find function, right?
