Hi Christin
instead of "Save as" or "Save" have you tried "Clean"?

Save File as translated Jan 16, 2018

Hi Christin,

If you have TXLF editor open go to File menu and selected Save file as translated.

If you are on Current Project use the option Cleanup and make sure you have the settings for Translated File Settings to enter the path for saved target file.

Thank you,

John
