TRADOS has been giving me all sorts of problems over the last 3 weeks. It shuts down for no reason, does not save when requested to do so, and by far the most frustrating - when I have to modify an existing sentence, occasionally it will start eating the following character, space or letter. I have to save, and reboot Trados. This can happen twice in a 9 hour work day.
Has anyone ever experienced this?? This is Trados 2021. Thanks for any help!

How odd as I dont think I have ever noticed this behaviour within Studio.
As this is a known windows behaviour referred to as forward deleting - have you noticed in other environments such as MS Word?
I believe toggling the Insert key may help. As well as Ctrl+Z to restore accidental deleted text.
If it is truly specific to Studio- you could try resetting Trados Studio to default state by following the advice here

Hi Lyds,
No, I haven't noticed it anywhere else, it has been specific to Trados. Very odd indeed.
Yes, I can recuperate the lost words with At +Z, but I still have to reboot to make it stop this behavior.
I will try reseting Trados, before breaking down and reinstalling, which I would like avoid.
There is also the issue of the occasional black screen - nothing saved - and today, it generated a return package that did not contain all of the files. Twice! Of course, I verified that all file were included and checked. But when the client received it, they were not all included.
I am not sure that default is going to fix all of these issues....
Best regards,
Leigh Ann

Lydia,
Thank you for your help. I did the repair, as suggested. I will let you know within the next week if any more issues arise.
I forgot to mention a black screen situation the other day that led to my project list being emptied. It was a frightening moment, to say the least.
When I imported the files I had been working on, they were fine. (Big sigh).
I hope this works! Thanks again.
