Hi.

The TM ribbon is empty for any given project.
I have tried using the Import From TMX/CSV button, but there doesn't seem to be any TM in the back-up memoq project files. I assume they are somewhere, but how do ... See more

Run a search on Windows? Jan 24, 2017

I couldn't find the file extension for memoQ translation memories. But I guess that you can search for files having this extension using the search box in the start menu of windows. Then you can extract the path for these files.

Thou canst indeed re-create thine translation memories from project files, but pain shalt thou suffer in the process...

TMX files found Jan 25, 2017

Thank you Elif for your search reminder. I found the TMX files on my backup external hard drive in a different place than the memoq project files. I am now importing those files back into memoQ, however, the import function says the import wwas performed successfully, but I can't see it in the translation memories pane. Something else to try to figure out today

Thank you Piotr for that crucial reminder to make backup... See more

Thank you Piotr for that crucial reminder to make backup files, which I did, but just couldn't find them or import them properly. ▲ Collapse
