Disappearing Project and TM lists in Wordfast Pro 3 论题张贴者: Fiona MacMillan
|
Hi. This morning I opened Wordfast Pro 3 to find that all my Project lists and TM lists had disappeared. As if the last 2 year’s work had evaporated or Wordfast just isn’t connecting to my profile. Wordfast support has just sent a mail saying that I should search for ‘C:\Users\YourUserName\.wf_workspace’. I don’t understand what they are asking me to do and they are not replying. Can anyone give me any advice as to how to recover my files? Many thanks in advance, Fiona | | | John Di Rico 法国 Local time: 04:35 正式会员 (自2006) French法语译成English英语 Projects are located in .wf_workspace | Nov 14, 2016 |

Maybe this got deleted or moved? I imagine you are on a PC since they specified the file path using C:\… This is where it would be on a Mac: http://www.screencast.com/t/TEhIFc4DVSA TMs and glossaries are the most important thing and your TMs are located in the place where you chose to save them initially. Glossaries are in the workspace folder (in the glossaries subfolder). Kind regards, John | | | How to locate the wf workspace file | Nov 14, 2016 |
Hi John, thanks for replying and yes I'm on a PC. I haven't moved a thing but can't find this file (how do I find it?) And if/when I do, how does that help me? What do I do with it? My TMs are all individually right where I saved them but that doesn't help me. I can't open a project. Wordfast no longer even recognises which language pair I use. Everything is blank. Sorry, I'm not technically minded. Fiona | | | Hedwig Spitzer (X) 秘鲁 French法语译成Spanish西班牙语 + ... It's not a file, it is a folder | Nov 14, 2016 |
Hello Fiona, Check the folder John indicated on the path he gave you. It is the only solution. It is not a file, it is a folder with plenty files in it. Those are your project files. You must click on My PC, then Disk C:, then the folder Users and so on. That is the path. Hope this helps. | |

How to connect my Projects & TMs back to Wordfast | Nov 15, 2016 |
Thanks very much Hedwig. I've found my Project files and TMs folders and reinstalled Wordfast. However, I can create a new Project but not open any existing Projects or TMs to Wordfast (or I can't see how). Now I've found the files, any advice on what I do next to get them functioning in Wordfast again? Many thanks in advance, Fiona | | |

When you found your Projects files, were they at C:\Users\YourUserName\.wf_workspace, that is, inside .wf_workspace folder? Kind regards, Reginaldo | | | L.

I am having the same problem (disappearing project) in Wordfast Pro 5 today. I finished a project on Friday, used it to analyze a new project to be started today (Tuesday) but whoops, the project I finished on Friday is gone and there is no .wf_workspace folder to be found on my Mac. Fortunately I can open the TXLF that was created when I did the analysis, but I sure would like to have the original project file and TM. | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Disappearing Project and TM lists in Wordfast Pro 3 Protemos translation business management system | Create your account in minutes, and start working! 3-month trial for agencies, and free for freelancers!
