Hi guys,
I have this annoying problem where any changes I make to the segmentation rules of a specific TM get lost once I close and reopen the TM/Trados Studio. What is going on here?

Hi Michael Beijer , I hope you are well?
I assume you are working with a local TM and not a cloud TM?
Please remind me of your Studio version
I have seen reports of this in relation to Passolo which is not true in your case.
In the meantime
Looking forward to understanding your scenario in a bit more detail

Hi Lydia,
Please find my answers below:
I assume you are working with a local TM and not a cloud TM?
Yes, this is with local TMs.
------------------
Please remind me of your Studio version
I am using: Trados Studio 2022 - 17.0.5.14757
------------------
It this TM specific?
No, it is happening with all my TMs at the moment. I made a video, which I can send you privately!
------------------
Have you played around with TM location to rule out security lead restrictions
Yes, I tried moving one of the TMs to my Desktop, e.g., and have exactly the same problem. There are no issues with file permissions that I can see.
------------------
Is the TM in good health otherwise, meaning reorganised etc
Yes. I also did the following (with all the relevant TMs):
- Recompute Fuzzy Index Statistics
- Re-Index Translation Memory
------------------
What sort of segment rules are you making, as I have seen other reports where segment rules are not being saved. But this relates specifically to |
I am trying to remove two segmentation rules: break on every colon (:) and break on every semi-colon (;), which I added myself a while ago, but no longer want.
------------------
It is basically absolutely impossible for me to delete those two specific segmentation rules from my TMs. Very odd.
I'm going to try the nuclear option:
This is going to take forever and really and one of those moments where I miss memoQ, where segmentation rules are not linked to specific TMs, but can be easily managed centrally. Hell, memoQ can even quickly resegment your active proect when you add a custom segmentation rule. There is definitely some room for improvement here in Trados!

Actually I would agree with you here... I like that approach too.
Have you tried working with ApplyTMTemplate?

Might save you some time. The UI is a little counter intuitive in places but it is quite handy for the sort of things you are attempting here. The wiki may also help: ApplyTM template

Weirdly, it only works fine when your TM is in the Translation Memories list (Translation Memories view, upper left corner). You don't even need to open it as if you want to edit the TM. Simply having it in the list will suffice. Make sure your TM is listed and try again. Once you click "Remove From List", the weird behavior will be there again.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure I was doing everything from exactly that menu – Translation Memories list (Translation Memories view, upper left corner) – but will check again when I have a moment.
