How to fix “Access to the path ‘F:\System Volume Information’ is denied” error in Trados Studio
08 August 2018
A very easy recovery of Trados Studio performance after the “Access to the path ‘F:System Volume Information’ is denied” error.
Sometimes, Trados Studio gives a mysterious message while importing a package:
Given that, it doesn’t import the package, the project doesn’t appear in the list, and it is impossible to work. At the same time, the System Volume Information folder is in the drive indeed, but it is hidden, and who knows how it is connected with Trados Studio projects.
It is not entirely clear what causes this error; however, it’s quite easy to fix:
- Close Trados Studio.
- Delete the UserSettings.xml file in the Trados Studio folder. It is usually located in the c:\Users\[USER NAME]\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\[Trados Studio version] folder.
- Start Trados Studio.
- Re-import the package.
This method works in Trados Studio 2015 and 2017, but it has to work in other versions too.

Haiti not Tahiti, Dominicana not Dominica
Linguogeographic notes The country of Haiti occupies a third of the island of Hispaniola, once called Hayti and still called so in many languages, other than Romano-Germanic, due to the confusion of their speakers. The remaining two-thirds is occupied by the Dominican Republic, sometimes also called Dominicana. A highly puzzling region. Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and the only […]
Cherokee writing system: familiar but weird
About using symbols A Native American chief named Sequoyah, also known to the world as George Guess, knew no English but often saw European settlers writing in it. His native language was Cherokee, which at that time (the early 19th century) did not yet have an alphabet. Realizing that sounds could be represented by signs and […]
The amusing homophony of English
Amusing to tears In English, due to its twisted spelling, it is not always possible to exactly identify the word pronounced. What is meant by [raɪt]—right, rite, wright, write? Pronounced similarly and written differently, these words are called homophones. Lots of jokes are based on homophony. For instance, May 4 is celebrated as the so-called Star Wars Day because the […]
