Hello,

File Type: Excel in a project folder

CAT version: Trados Studio 2019 "Freelance Edition"

Error Message: "This project already contains a source file named <file name>"

Images: Apologies for not having them, as I accidentally fixed the problem but I am not happy with the way it was fixed.

I was creating an excel file and I opened it for translation by adding it to the project I working on. Then, I noticed that I forgot to remove a few things, so I removed the file from the project on Studio first, and then deleted the source and the target files in the folder of the project on my PC. Then I fixed my file and tried to add it again to the project by "add file" option, but this error above kept appearing. The only solution that I came up with was to re-name that excel file and re-add it, so Studio won't say "This project already contains a source file named <file name>", and it worked. However, I know this isn't an ideal solution because the error will reappear if I'll try to use the same file name. So I was hoping to know how to adjust files that I have already added to Studio2019 without getting this error. 

Thanks a lot for taking the time to help!
