Disable the update temporarily May 21, 2015

I can't tell you why you can't connect to the update server, but this should not prevent you from working. Thew update function runs as a separate task in Window, so simply quit it by clicking on the x on the top right. The in your Studio go to "Tools - Options - Automatic Updates" and uncheck the box so that Studio does not try to update every time you launch it.

Nope May 21, 2015

Thanks Walter, but that's not working. Even when I close the update, it's blank and won't start so I can't get to the tools! This is crazy.

Did you try repairing trados studio 2011? Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features, find SDL Trados Studio 2011, right click and choose Repair from the popup.

Hi Linda,

Nothing works... May 23, 2015

Steve, how can I send you a screenshot?

My laptop works fine until I try to get into my 2011. Then my laptop is totally screwed up. I have tried all your tips. I can't work, I can hardly use my laptop without pushing the windows flag to go back and forth to get into anything.

I use Avast and I have windows 8.1 (with startisback). This only started yesterday when I tried to get into studio and it started to try to update.

I just lost a project because I can't work.

Should I remove and re-download or something?

Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Startisback was the problem May 23, 2015

Seems the update and startisback aren't compatible. I removed that from my laptop and now trados seems to be working again!!!

That was a very strange experience....

Thanks for everyone's help (I may be back )
