No valid files for retrofit, translation memory not found, dependency file not found

Question

Hi, 
 Studio makes me so sad/mad today, tons of error messages (not just today) that make life hard.

I&acute;ve reviewed and accepted all changes so not sure where to go from here. 
 I also constantly get the error message (in every file these days) that my TM apparently can&acute;t be found, even though it&acute;s in the same place as it always was, hasn&acute;t moved an inch since added as TM. 
 And then last but not least annoying, the old "dependency file not found" message. What is happening? Thanks for your input, much appreciated!

Hello Daniela Wittmeier , 
 It sounds as though there are a number of issues here and the installation is becoming corrupt. 
 I would first suggest you ensure that both Studio and MultiTerm are added to your AV exceptions list.

 The issues with dependency file is often due to the source file being too large to be embedded in the sdlxliff.

 I would also suggest removing the TM from the project, then doing a repair/reset

 Then add the TM back into the project. 
 Please let us know if the resolves the issues.

Hello Daniela Wittmeier , 
 This is an issue that many users face (trying to find the AppData folder as its hidden by default ) 
 Simply in File Explorer- go to VIEW and then enable Hidden Items- you will then see the AppData folder 
 
 In regards to the rair via the control panel/ Programs and Features, you need to select the correct option - 
 Right click Studio- to get the following option 
 
 Click Uninstall/Change- then agree to changes being made and then you will see the following-

Now click Repair and you should be ok now.
