Hello I don't understand what's happening to the file names. If I add a file to be translated and then I remove it (there is a pop up asking me to remove the file from the list or to remove it from the archive. I tried both options. And when I re-upload the same file (same name as well) it opens it adding a number at the end of the file name. I tried to do the same action several times, and when I uploaded the file it added a sequence number, i.e. at the second time I uploaded ...

And only for one specific project when I want to remove a file, now it also asks me to remove both txlf file and source file, Maybe I made a change in the settings, but I don't know where and what.

trying to open/re-open/save one and the same file in the same location, so the system adds numbers in order to avoid overwriting. What about mentioning some "archive": aren't you trying to work with a file by opening it directly from some archive? | | | Lucia Messuti Italy Local time: 13:27 English to Italian + ...

is good. As to the Archive, iI refer to the Archive in Wordfast 4 folders. Don't you have an Archive in the project folder? | | | Natalie Poland Local time: 13:27 Member (2002) English to Russian + ... Moderator of this forum SITE LOCALIZER You may have archives | Feb 28, 2017 |
wherever you wish/need. However, you cannot work with files directly from archives. And no, I don't have any archives in any work folders as this is not a proper place for them. | |

In the most recent versions, when you delete a txlf file from a project, it asks you to remove it from the list or from the list and the archive. Do you mean that archive? And where is it? Anyway, when I re-uploaded the file, I took it from the its folder, not in the archive or the project folder. | | | John Di Rico France Local time: 13:27 Member (2006) French to English Send to archive | Mar 3, 2017 |

And where is it? I think Natalie means that archive. If you delete a file and not put it in the archive, it stays in the TXLF folder of the project and is only removed from the list. Adding another file with the same name will cause the numbering sequence you spoke of. When you remove the file, choose the option to remove it from the list and send it to the archive (this folder is then created and is found in the project folder).
