Trados 2021 is very slow

Question

Hi, 
 I am using Trados Studio Freelance Plus 2021 SR2. When I move from one segment to the next, the system lags. It also takes a long time for segment matches to appear when I move to the next segment. Why is that?

Hi Hana Doudin 
 Disabling the verification when confirming a segment would help.

Hi Hana Doudin and Agust&iacute;n Pardo 
 I have a group of things that I do if Studio is slow or crashes e.g. with a big/old/slow file: 
 1) Go to File > Options > Editor > Automation then UNtick 'Enable LookAhead' under 'Translation Memory' and UNtick 'Enable verification of segment' under 'After Confirming Segments Manually' 
 
 Both these options should help speed things up. You can then verify the file after you've finished working on it all in one go via the Review tab > Verify or by clicking F8. 
 Then, in the Project Settings (or via File>Options if you create your own projects or work via Translate Single File), turn OFF upLift Match Repair: 
 
 Turning this setting off seems to help with files that for some reason cause Studio to crash. I am sure it helps with speed too. 
 If you want to know what any setting means under File > Options or under Project Settings, click the Help button bottom right of the settings window: 
 
 Keeping these settings turned on if you need them works just fine if you have a hi-spec fast computer and an excellent broadband connection. However, in less than perfect scenarios, it can help to turn one or all of them off. I always have them all turned off unless I need them, and Studio works well for me... 
 I hope this helps, 
 All the best, 
 Ali

 Hi there 
 Speed problems can be due to many different factors. 
 To get help from the technical department, start a new thread via 'New' at the top of this page in community.rws.com... It looks like this: 
 
 Click on 'New' and type a short sentence to summarise what you want to ask. 
 Click 'Enter' and write a longer description of your problem, giving your Trados version and when and how Trados is behaving slowly for you. 
 The technical department can only open one case per thread so if you start a new thread, they will be able to set up a case for you and even look at your computer remotely to talk you through your problem and find a way to solve it. 
 All the best, 
 Ali
