Hi all

My knowledge of Trados is only basic (i.e. how to complete projects using it) so please forgive me if this is an obvious question.

I've been sent a project package with a really useful TM included by one customer. I'd like to extract this TM and use it in future projects.

Thank you! ▲ Collapse

It is accessible, within the respective project folder Jul 21, 2023

Go to the Projects view, find the respective package name, look for the Location column and right-click on the respective row. Click on Open Project Folder and a new window opens. The folder labeled Tm contains the TM you are looking for.
