Browse or drop files Mar 5, 2020

At the top of the dashboard it says, "Drop files here to start translating or browse..." I would browse, go to where your projects are saved, and choose the ones you want to show up in your list. They will all show up in that upper section with a big Q and the name of the project underneath each Q. Click the one you want to "start translating" and it will start to create a new project.

At the top of the dashboard it says, "Drop files here to start translating or browse..." I would browse, go to where your projects are saved, and choose the ones you want to show up in your list. They will all show up in that upper section with a big Q and the name of the project underneath each Q. Click the one you want to "start translating" and it will start to create a new project. You won't end up with duplicates in your computer if you keep the name the same. It will then show up in your list in the lower section and you can work on it or leave it alone.

Depending on how you work, you might not need all the projects to show there (if you saved everything in your TM)--just only the ones you need to finish. When I finish a project, I move it to the Recycle Bin so I won't have clutter. If I need to see one of those projects again, I just View Recycle Bin. This is a MemoQ recycle, not the trash bin for your whole computer, so you are safe. I think of it more as hiding the files rather than actually "recycling" because they are not deleted.

I hope this helps.
