Unable to open xlf files in Windows 10 with SDL Trados Studio 2014 Freelance

Question

I've recently updated to Windows 10 and now I'm unable to open xlf files in SDL Trados Studio 2014. I get an error that reads: "The identified target language does not match the expected project language". I know it has nothing to do with language codes, as I've had no problem opening the same files in a Windows 7 and Windows 8 PC. Any help? 
 I attach error message. Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi Violeta, 
 This works without a problem. If I use the single document process when I first open the file the target language is not recognised, as expected: 
 
 So I can manually change the target language to whatever I want and it opens like this: 
 
 I am getting messages telling me the languages are not correct and not validating, but I can ignore them. I can still translate the file and save the target. 
 If I create a project with en(US) - es(LA) and add this file then it just works. I can translate and save the target. 
 As long as I don't change any settings that might "correct" the language code then the target file is exactly the same as the source, only translated.

Hi Violeta, 
 I do think it may be related to language codes. Studio takes the codes it supports from the operating system, so if you were to check in three different operating systems you would see different languages available to you. 
 However, it would be a good idea to tell us exactly what languages are in your project (main language and sub language, so en-GB or de-AT for example) and also take a look with a text editor and see what languages are in the XLIFF file you are working with. 
 It might also be helpful if you did attach the error message in full. You can do that by saving the error message to your desktop and then attach that file (it's an xml file) to here:
