Unfortunately, errors happen in every program

We have caught a new error, this time in Xliff Editor, a text editor included in the Translation Workspace software package. Here’s what it looks like: 

Failed to load built-in plugin(s):

Failed to activate the plugin: … reason : …

* * *

The error happens due to the wrong configuration of some plug-in (or plugins). It can be removed by reinstalling the whole software package that resets all the settings.

Follow these steps:

1.   Delete the programs (you may not have all of them installed):

• Translation Workspace Client
• Translation Workspace Word Client
• Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor

2.   Delete the folders:

• C:\Users\<User’s name>\AppData\Roaming\Translation Workspace
• C:\Users\<User’s name>\AppData\Roaming\Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor
• C:\ProgramData\Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor
• C:\Program Files (x86)\Lionbridge\Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor or C:\Program Files\Lionbridge\Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor
• Go to the C:\Users\<User’s name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder and delete the template files of WorkspaceForWord.dot and WorkspaceForWord.dotm
• C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office##\STARTUP

3.   Then, download the latest versions of these programs from the Lionbridge website and install them in the following order:

• Translation Workspace Client
• Translation Workspace XLIFF Editor
• Translation Workspace Word Client
