error message "cannot set the active view to a view that is disabled or not available"

Whatever I try to do, first I get error message "cannot set the active view to a view that is disabled or not available". Next the ribbon disappears and I get the next error message: "Failed to activate view editor". I cannot even close the window but another Trados window opens without problems. Does anyone know what might be the problem and how to avoid it? And how do I close the window with no  drop-down menu nor ribbon? I have installed Studio 2015 version a week ago. Thanks!

    I'm getting this same error in Studio 2017 SR1 (!)

    But here's the interesting (and annoying) story. I was in the middle of a new translation project, luckily, just starting. Now, I cannot close Studio AND the folder where I created the project disappeared!!!

    What could've possibly happened? What I did was to create a second project (the one whose folder vanished) after creating the first one (same client, same translation) and change the language cultures. Everything was going fine, until I decided to close the project to go for a walk... (A few minutes before I was signing off previous projects).

    I also applied "Reset Window Layout" (yes, the Home ribbon was empty (!), then the Home ribbon came back but same situation.

    Any hints? Thank you.
