Error message 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' in newly installed TS 2024

Error message in Trados Studio 2024 stating 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' with options for 'Knowledge Base', 'Community', and an 'OK' button.

This gobbledigook message appears at my very first attempt to actually translate a file in my newly (and dearly) purchased TS 2024.

I need help with this urgently.

  • Thank you, but I would like to protest that this is the third or fourth time this installation needs repairing. I tried it myself with TS 2022 after installing Information Box which caused a crash. Your support team got it up and running again and installed the plugin again without TS crashing. But now I discover that although TS opens, I cannot use it.

    In the process I upgraded to TS 2024 thinking that my 2022 version was irreparably broken, and now I can't use that version either. I feel I have wasted my money.
