Hallo,

I've just completed my translation and wanted to send it back in Word as requested by the client. Unfortunately my Word target document (F12) is not opening.


Message: Die Datei kann nicht geöffnet werden, da ihr Inhalt Probleme verursacht.

It was possible to open it just an hour ago.

I remember it's possible to retrieve a translation from the TM. Not sure anymore how it goes. Would anyone have a link with some instructions?

Recreate project Mar 8, 2021

Hello,
You could recreate/reopen the original project, after making a copy of the translated file(s) and the TM on a safe location.
After re-creation of the project, copy the TM to the TM folder of the new project, select the relevant file, rightclick and choose Batch tasks --> Pre-translate.
I hope this helps.
