Dear All,
1. I have the latest version of Trados Studio 2024 - 18.0.0.1013 installed.
2. I was in the process of setting up a new project, at the stage of adding the termbases. The following cryptic sounding error message popped:
Trados simply refuses to add any of my termases to the project.
Solutions?
Best regards,
Pavel
Does the path to your TBs contain any Eastern European characters?
Hi Daniel,
The path does not contain any Unicode symbols and has not been changed for many years (has worked fine with different versions of Trados).
Best regards,

I would like to further add that the same error is shown when opening Multiterm, and the Widget will not stat at all.
I reinstalled Trados and Multiterm but this has not solved the problem.
In recent days there has been a major Windows 11 update. As far as I remember, everything worked fine before it.
This needs to be addressed ASAP as Trados cannot be used in its present broken form.
I am using W10, so I can't comment on that, but if all W11 users were affected there would be a firestorm in this forum.
The way Studio connects to MultiTerm has changed significantly in the 2024 version. Could it be possible that you are using a template from 2022 or earlier that is causing this? The "old" termbases work for sure.
Did you try creating a “vanilla” project, just the plain default template with as little modifications as possible, just a plain text file etc? That could help in finding what is causing the issue.
Hi Walter,
I have reinstalled all products (so the advice to "repair" or "reinstall" has already been followed – to no avail) and I have now followed your advice and completed the steps listed in these articles:

https://gateway.sdl.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000001414

Unfortunately, it did not work. I get the same error message when I load the project and try to add a termbase to it. I also get the error message when I try to open Multiterm, and the Widget will not start at all.
Best regards,
Pavel
The problem may be caused by a plugin? Do you still get the error if you disable all plugins?
(e.g. by deleting the contents of ..\AppData\Roaming\Trados\Trados Studio\17\Plugins\Unpacked\ and temporarily moving the contents of ..\AppData\Roaming\Trados\Trados Studio\17\Plugins\Packages\ somewhere else so that you can copy them back later.
Also, do you have one or both of these add-ons installed: "WorldServer Components" and "Trados Compatibility and Migration Power Pack". If yes, uninstall them.
Hi Walter,
No plugins are installed. Not sure about the add-ons that you mention "WorldServer Components" and "Trados Compatibility and Migration Power Pack". How can I check?
However, if the error is shown also when starting Multiterm separately do plugins and add-ons have anything to do with it?
Best regards,
Pavel

By looking at your list of installed software and checking if these 2 apps appear there:

Do you have the latest version of MultiTerm?
