Unable to select my target language in language pairs

Audrey Mouysset

Hi there,

Ever since I activated my license on another computer, I haven't been able to set up the language pair I'm working on. This generates a "the object reference is not set to an object instance" message.

I've tried to follow the following step described in the community threads:

**Step 1:** Ensure that your target language is set correctly.

- Open Trados Studio.

- Go to **File > Options > Editor > Languages**.

… but I cannot find my language in the list (the list is not complete).

Could you please help ?

Thank you!

Audrey

    Hello Audrey,

    Thank you for reaching out! It seems like you're encountering an issue with setting up your language pairs in Trados Studio after activating your license on a new computer. Let me guide you through the steps to resolve this:

    ### Step 1: Verify Installed Languages

    1. Open **Trados Studio**.

    2. Navigate to **Help > About Trados Studio**.

    3. Check the list of installed languages. If your desired target language is not listed, it means it was not included during the initial installation.

    ### Step 2: Modify Installed Languages

    1. Close Trados Studio.

    2. Open the **Trados Studio Installer** from your computer (you can find it in your Downloads folder or through your system's installed programs).

    3. Select the option to **Modify** the installation.

    4. When prompted, ensure that your desired target language is selected in the list of languages.

    5. Complete the modification process and restart Trados Studio.

    ### Step 3: Set the Default Language Pair

    1. Open Trados Studio.

    2. Go to **File > Options > Editor > Languages**.

    3. Under **Default Languages**, set your desired **Source Language** and **Target Language**.
