E rror message.:

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Question

In Trados 2011 I am getting the following error message. 
 " De objectverwijzing is niet op een exemplaar van een object ingesteld" which translates as: 
 "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" 
 It is then not possible to close down Trados. I am using Windows 8 and Word 2011 
 Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, 
 
Thank you for your post. I am sorry to hear that you experience issues with our software. 
As possible solutions please check this: 
 
1. Check if repairing SDL Trados Studio fixes this 
2. If repairing Studio fails to make this work please reset SDL Trados Studio to default state : 
 
- Please browse here 
C:\Users\[User_Name]\AppData\Local\SDL: rename the SDL Trados Studio and ProjectApi folder 
here: C:\Users\[User_Name]\AppData\Roaming\SDL: rename the SDL Trados Studio folder 
and here : C:\Users\[User_Name]\Documents\Studio [VERSION]: rename the Studio [VERSION folder to Studio [VERSION]_Old 
 
Some folders may be hidden. For this reason you may need to review your folder settings via: Start - Control Panel - Folder Options - View - and select "Show hidden files, folders or drives 
Hope this helps. 
Best regards, 
Radu
