Studio 2015 SR2: not able to open physically merged files as virtual merge

Quite bad issue - a customer has send me an "old fashioned" project with physically merged files. The customer does so for all colleagues, who are still on 2011, so this will not change, as no one will create separate projects for different translators.

Now I cannot open the files within this project as virtual merge - but that is necessary due to many repetitions between files. When I take the files out of the project, I can open them, but not save, the corresponding error message has been forwarded to support. It reads:

Why is this so? IMHO this is a productivity killer, which I have not supposed to find in Studio...

  • I'm posting here in the hope someone has already seen that - or maybe there are other solutions.
    My current solution is using the unmerged files from the customer project and merging them virtually.
    I have tried to create myself a project with physically merged files, but the result was the same.

    If it was wrong to post here, please feel free to delete.
    Kind regards, Jerzy
