Can't create or use a termbase

Hello! 

I can't create or use a termbase in Trados Studio 2022 SR1 - 17.1.8.17828

The termbase function stops working. It has happened, then went back to normal, then is happening again. It doesn't create a new termbase, use an existing one, add terms to a previously loaded one, or anything at all. Trados doesn't close properly as well when I try to.

I have tried updating Trados, reinstalling it, deleting the project and creating a new one, changing the file format, reaching for support from my local account manager, reading the forums, and more, to no success.

Everytime I try to add terms / create a termbase / use a termbase, it shows an error message (image / log below).

I need support for the termbases to function, please, as soon as possible. Thank you.

Error dialog box in Trados Studio with message: 'Refer ncia de objeto n o definida para uma inst ncia de um objeto.' with an OK button and links to Knowledge Base and Community.

  • Walter, no for both.

    When I try to create one, it shows this error pop-up :

    Error pop-up message in Trados Studio stating 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' with an OK button.

    And when trying to use one, it shows:

    Error message in Trados Studio indicating 'A connection to MultiTerm Server unknown could not be established. Please check your connection settings' with options for Knowledge Base, Community, and an OK button.
