Trados 2015 find/find and replace function not working

Hi there - when I attempt to open the trados 2015 find/find and replace function, the function is displayed in the windows toolbar but remains minimized, and I am unable to access it. Has anyone had a similar experience with this? I also had to force open trados from the toolbar at one stage last week by maximizing it with the right mouse button menu. Anyone got any idea of a possible solution? I didn't realise how unbelievably frustrating it is to not be able to use the function! Thanks, Rob

  • Hi, I have been experiencing this problem on and off for some time. I have not quite worked out what the cause is. Not only are the Find and Replace options in the ribbon greyed out, so are a number other functions: "Copy all source to target", "Clear target segment", "Merge segments" and "Split segments". I have not worked out what the conditions are that cause this problem to occur. I suspect it might have something to do with the firewall/virusscanner (Kaspersky) or some other programme which interferes with the working of Trados. Another thought that has crossed my mind is that it might have something to do with Java (I heard somewhere that Trados is Java based).
