Hello,

It seems like you're experiencing an issue with your Trados Studio 2021 where your project list is not being saved or displayed correctly. This could be due to a corrupted projects.xml file or an issue with the SDLTrados Studio.exe folder. Here's how you can try to resolve this:

Step 1: Close Trados Studio 2021.

Step 2: Navigate to the following location: C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\Documents\Studio 2021\Projects.

Step 3: Find the file named 'projects.xml' and rename it. This will force Trados Studio to create a new projects.xml file when it restarts.

Step 4: Now, navigate to this location: C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\SDL\Platform\Identity.

Step 5: Find the folder named 'SDLTrados Studio.exe' and rename it. This will reset the settings related to Trados Studio.

Step 6: Restart Trados Studio 2021.

Step 7: Go to File -> Setup -> Servers and re-add the connection to your Group Share server.

Step 8: Try to open your project again in a new empty folder.

Please remember to replace 'YOUR USERNAME' with your actual username on your computer. If the problem persists, it might be a good idea to reinstall Trados Studio 2021.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards,

There is no such path:

Step 4: Now, navigate to this location: C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\SDL\Platform\Identity.

And no such folder:

Step 5: Find the folder named 'SDLTrados Studio.exe' and rename it. This will reset the settings related to Trados Studio.

Also, I tried a Studio repair which did not fix the issue.

Close Studio and rename the projects.xml file to projects old.xml for exmaple.

Mine is here: C:\Users\[MyUserName]\Documents\Studio 2022\Projects, not exactly where you said…

Now restart Studio. Does it work?

I had done that to no avail. I uninstalled Studio, deleted all existing projects.xml files, reinstalled Studio, the issue still remains!
