Find & Replace don't work, most of the time

Hi there. Since I upgraded to Studio 2024, I noticed an issue I never had with previous versions. Shortcuts Ctrl+F or Ctrl+H don't work most of the time, and I don't even see these functions on the ribbon. I checked my shortcut list and these two are both assigned. What could possibly be the problem?

  • Hello,

    I understand that you're having trouble with the Find & Replace function in Trados Studio 2024. This could be due to a few reasons, but let's try to troubleshoot this issue step by step:

    Step 1: Check if the Find & Replace functions are enabled in your Trados Studio. You can do this by going to the "Edit" menu and see if the "Find" and "Replace" options are available.

    Step 2: If the functions are not available, it might be due to a software glitch. Try restarting Trados Studio and see if the issue persists.

    Step 3: If the issue still persists, you might want to check if there are any updates available for Trados Studio. You can do this by going to the "Help" menu and selecting "Check for Updates".

    Step 4: If the functions are available but the shortcuts are not working, it could be due to your keyboard settings. As mentioned in the context, you can try disabling the function keys on your Windows 10. For Dell laptops, this can be done by pressing the combination of keys Ctrl+Fn+Esc simultaneously. Alternatively, the combination of keys Fn+Esc can work.

    Please note that the process might vary depending on the make and model of your laptop. You can refer to your laptop's user manual or the manufacturer's website for more specific instructions.

    I hope this helps! If you're still having trouble, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist you further.

    Best regards,
