Hi!
I love my Trados 2017, but this morning, when I wanted to continue my work from yesterday, I was confronted with the fact that the program just wont start. I have uninstalled, reinstalled Trados, Multiterm, Java for several times and looked through different related forums and topics. After reinstallation I always manage to choose the 5 languages, but afterwards...nothing. Multiterm works, Trados not. I also tried to deactivate the license - in case the problem is related to the licen... See more Hi!
I love my Trados 2017, but this morning, when I wanted to continue my work from yesterday, I was confronted with the fact that the program just wont start. I have uninstalled, reinstalled Trados, Multiterm, Java for several times and looked through different related forums and topics. After reinstallation I always manage to choose the 5 languages, but afterwards...nothing. Multiterm works, Trados not. I also tried to deactivate the license - in case the problem is related to the license - (I have the Plus, and actually one licence left to use), but I cant deactivate, neither online nor offline.
I do not get any failure messages or popups, Trados just won't start.
In my desperation (deadline Monday morning) I bought the Level2-maintenance agreement to get an answer within 3 hours, but realized first after my purchase that the SDL support doesnt work on weekends. I found a solution to be able to deliver on Monday morning, the most important thing at all, but without my Trados working the next week, I will start to get quite big problems.
I have no idea what the problem is, I have no idea where to search for a solution anymore, is there anybody out there who has made similar experiences or can help me?
Thank you so much in advance!
Best regards,
Elisabeth ▲ Collapse

| Tried restart the PC? | Feb 25, 2017 |
The first idea which comes to mind for me when something like this happens, is to try restart the PC. At times the error then just disappears, saving me a lot of work and aggravation. But of course, this isn't always the solution.

Hi Roy!
Thank you for your answer - (and thanks to all of you having read and maybe thought about the issue)
Roy, I for sure restarted the system several times yesterday. After sleeping one night and starting the system today I was confronted with the fact that SDL Trados works all the sudden. To be honest, I still cannot believe this after having lost a whole day yesterday trying to find a solution. I am happy for sure, but very confused, because I still have no clue what ha...

To be honest, I still cannot believe this after having lost a whole day yesterday trying to find a solution. I am happy for sure, but very confused, because I still have no clue what has happenend.
So to anybody who may face a similar problem in future, I still do not know why Trados works again, but I will post it here as soon as I know more from SDL Support.
Thank you for your input, Roy - you obviously had a point!
Best regards,

| You must also delete the Trados settings before re-installing | Feb 27, 2017 |
Hello,
see one of my recent posts to know where the Trados settings are located (search for 'vain exercice'), the settings are stored in [user]\appdata\...\SDL...
Another reason may be: you must setup your license correctly and you need to be online to reach the server. Else, Studio will not run if your trial period is over.

AND: SDL did, kind enough, promptly and without asking any questions pay back the amount I had paid for the support agreement, when I asked them. I really appreciate this.
Good luck to everybody! ▲ Collapse
