Hello,

this is the error message I get when trying to open a TM file. I have already followed the instructions here https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/f/90/t/14235 , with the exceptions that:

b) I can not find a way to log a support request with SDL - I do not have a suport contract.

Any sugestions, please?

TIA,

Hello Jose,

I don't know this error message but I might help you in finding that xml file.
Here are some instructions on making hidden folders visible:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028316/windows-view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-10

And then you should be able to get to the C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\14.0.0.0 folder and find that xml.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards

Wrong folder path :-( Sep 21, 2018

Hi Janine,

I have my hidden folders and files showing, but I was looking in the wrong file path, confusing
C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local with
c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming (shame on me).

It's working now

Thank you,
José Ruivo
