I wonder if anyone could help me. My Xbench 2.9 worked fine with Trados Studio 2017 up until today, when it completely stopped being able to recognize or open sdlxliff files from Studio. When I try to add them, Xbench suggests “Tab-delimited text” as file format, so it doesn’t seem to recognize the files, and when I proceed, it just goes on to let me know that none of the files I added can be opened. I even tried opening old projects that I already checked with Xbench, and those won’t open either.

Has this happened to anyone else? Any suggestions?
