Is this your private computer or a company administrated PC?
The reason I ask is because what you describe is most probably due to the fact that your logged-in user does not have sufficient rights. Once you have gone through the first startup screens, Studio writes entries to the registry and updates some files, so it knows you have already gone through this. If it does not, it means that these entries/files could not be properly written.
Are you the only user on this PC or do you have more than one account? Do you log in with the same user that was used to install Studio?
Please launch Studio with administrator rights and see whether this solves your problem.
If not, you may need to open a support ticket by going to
support.xl8.one

Thank you very much, Walter,

I am the only user and it is my own personal SDL TRADOS account. Nobody else touches this computer nor do they use TRADOS.

I assume I am always running the program as an administrator. I have never changed the way I run or open it. I am at a loss.

By the way, every time I open the program the SDL Cloud window pops up advising me that I have xx free days left...

Thanks again for your help!

Hi Susana,

I think Walter is correct here.  Most likely you don't have sufficient rights for the program to run.  Perhaps try reinstalling but this time when you do it make sure you right-click on the exe file and select "run as administrator".  If it still doesn't behave try running Studio as admin when you start it.  You can do that by right-clicking on the icon and select "run as administrator"

Regards

Paul

I'm still baffled because nothing has changed in my computer set up to grant this change in the way the program runs.

Hi Susana,

It sounds as though you just don't have admin rights set up in windows so unless you specifically request the program to be run this way it's unable to write files to the appropriate location, and this includes your setup files which is why you kept being nagged.

Regards

Paul
