When I choose "New local project" it hangs and I have to use task manager to close Trados 2021

Hello,
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with Trados Studio 2021. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:
Step 1: Ensure that your Trados Studio 2021 is up-to-date. You can check for updates within the application itself.
Step 2: Try to restart your computer. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve many issues.
Step 3: If the problem persists, you might want to consider reinstalling Trados Studio 2021. Before you do this, make sure to back up any important data.
Step 4: If none of the above steps work, it might be a good idea to check your computer's system requirements. Trados Studio 2021 requires certain system specifications to run smoothly.
Remember, creating a new local project should be a straightforward process: from the Projects View, select New Project, then Local project. Choose your project folder, select the required Translation Memories (local) and Machine Translation provider(s) as needed, select Termbase(s) provider(s) as required, and then click Finish.
I hope these steps help you resolve the issue. If you continue to experience problems, please let me know.
Best regards,
