Problem with batches - Project disappears from project list after renaming

Hi all,

I am working on a very large project with multiple batches and hundreds of files in each package. Unfortunately, the project manager sends each new batch in a project package with the exact same name, so I went to project settings and renamed the project to be able to keep the batches apart. However, after renaming the original project, it disappeared from the project list. When I try to open it with the Open project button, I get the message "This project has already been opened in SDL Trados Studio 2019 and added to the project list". But it is not there. I tried changing the name back to the original name, but still get the same message.

After renaming the original project, I managed to open batch 2 with its own name (project name_batch2), but now I can't remember how I did that. I thought there was an option to browse for a different folder, but now when I go to open package 3, the only option is to Finish, and then all the files end up in the same folder as package 2. Why is this? Do I have to rename each batch before opening the package for the next batch? But then how do I access the previous files again? 

Maybe I could open each package (under a new name) and then take the files from each one and build a new project where each batch is in its own folder but still in the same project? Any other ideas?

Thanks

Erika
