We may never know without a little more information:

• what version of the software?
• what were you doing when this happened?
• have you run a repair of the problem TM?
• is the TM on your local machine of on some other drive (network, dropbox, onedrive etc.)?
• what was the full error message and not just the headline?

I figured you'd ask me a bunch of questions like that, I just waited to see which ones.

• what version of the software? SDL Trados Studio 2019 SR2 - 15.2.8.3007
• what were you doing when this happened? I was translating segments, when I confirm, it appears sporatically.
• have you run a repair of the problem TM? How do I do that? You mean through the Windows repair procedure? Not yet, but I'll try it.
• is the TM on your local machine of on some other drive (network, dropbox, onedrive etc.)? Yes, it's on my machine.
• what was the full error message and not just the headline?  "An error has occurred while using the translation provider AnyTM: EN-PT Tech Trans.anytmreverse: The operation is not valid due to the current state of the object."

Update: Windows repair didn't help. But I noticed that if I delete the error message and confirm the same segment where it appeared before, it appears again. I just noticed one instance where the error message appears twice after confirmation of a single segment. Also, that particular segment is not updated to the TM. Always that same TM that you see in the error message.

So, have we forgotten about this problem? I haven't, it's still happening.

Is the TM up to date? If you look in the project settings, does the TM symbol show a small orange triangle? If sop, an upgrade of TM is necessary.

If not, export the TM to TMX and create a new one based on the old TM, then import the TMX there.
