I suggest you try a rest first.  

To do this just close Trados Studio and then delete these folders:

%appdata%\Trados\Trados Studio\Studio18\

%appdata%\Trados\Trados Studio\18\

You will lose your plugins, and also your settings, but your projects and other resources will remain untouched. Putting the plugins back is trivial via the integrated appstore.

If you can't find these folders then you need to unhide your hidden files/folders:

Then restart Trados Studio and see if that helped.

Hi Paul,

thank you for your reply. I have tried the steps you recommended, but it did not help. The folders keep recreating themselves whenever I try to open Trados. And when I checked the task manager for any open instances, way down the list I always found an active 32-bit version of Trados and stopped it. Did not help either. I found another thread from Jerzey on this issue which suggested to delete the Trados folder entirely. I haven't dared this yet for fear that I might also delete Trados 2022 which currently is my only option to complete any translation projects due.

Do you have any other idea?

Best wishes,

Heike
