How to Get Rid of the “ActiveX Control Cannot Be Instantiated Because the Current Thread Is Not in a Single-Threaded Apartment” Error in Trados Studio

How to Get Rid of the “ActiveX Control Cannot Be Instantiated Because the Current Thread Is Not in a Single-Threaded Apartment” Error in Trados Studio - 1

We’ve caught another Trados Studio error

Here is the message:

How to Get Rid of the “ActiveX Control Cannot Be Instantiated Because the Current Thread Is Not in a Single-Threaded Apartment” Error in Trados Studio - 2

ActiveX control <...> cannot be instantiated because the current thread is not in a single-threaded apartment.

It can be translated into human language as follows: “Something has happened somewhere, and it can be removed in some way. And now press OK because you have no choice anyway.”

Joking aside, it is another result of the conflicts between Trados Studio and Windows. This error takes place after Windows updates.

To remove it, reset the Internet Explorer parameters (!!!).
