Word 2007-2019 files open in Word instead of Studio when opened from within Studio

Hi all:

This started a few weeks ago. I generate a project with Word files but when I try to open the files, they open In Word instead of opening a Trados window. My solution has been to resave the files as .doc files instead of .docx. Those open in Studio as they should but I would like to fix this problem. Thanks for any help. Sonia

  • Hi Paul. Very Sorry for the delay in my response. Your reply had gone in to my spam. Here are my answers:

    1. Studio 2021

    2. I doubleclick on the file that I want to open from the target language folder.

    3. See screenshot attached. What is funny is that if you look closely, you can see that the Word icon for MKT-9156 (which is the one that opens in Word instead of Studio) is a little different than the Word icon for Your new favorite experience is coming (which is also a .docx file that I have no problem opening in Studio). I have noticed that every time I try to open a file .docx file that has an icon like the first file, that's when I run into this problem. Thanks for any help.

    Trados Studio interface showing a list of files with their progress. The file 'MKT-9156 08312023 Sales Aid Book_1.docx' has a different Word icon and is not translated.
