Hi All,

I use SDL Trados 2019.

I have downloaded the SDLXLIFF TOOLKIT plugin from the Appstore and installed it. Everything in that process went well.

But now I cannot find the application on my computer. According to the Toolkit UserGuide, "The installation will create an icon on your desktop, a shortcut to the application in Studio ... and a shortcut in the Windows start menu...". I cannot find it anywhere in these locations.

Hi All,

But now I cannot find the application on my computer. According to the Toolkit UserGuide, "The installation will create an icon on your desktop, a shortcut to the application in Studio ... and a shortcut in the Windows start menu...". I cannot find it anywhere in these locations.

In my SDL Trados 2019, to which I installed it, it does not show it under 'Installed Plugins' in the Welcome area.

I tried to install it again by double-clicking on the file. Again it was happy to run through the Wizard, although it pointed out that I already had the plugin installed. I went ahead anyway and performed the installation again, but still I cannot find the application anywhere.

I'm just trying to install it so that I can perform find/replace across a number of files in one project.

Help appreciated

Just being able to batch find/replace would be a big help Jun 28, 2022

Unfortunately those issues are not related to the batch find/replace and I cannot find the solution there.

I have 120 files in this project, and need to do an find/replace on some words.

Anyone have any other ideas how to action this in Trados 2019?

1. You can select all the files and open them in a multiple files mode, then do your replacements.
2. What regards their instructions, they seem to be outdated. They don't apply changes in a hurry. I asked about the T-Window for Clipboard app half a year ago but RWS never returned with any update even though Paul promised to do so "shortly"
My 2021 version does not create shortcuts except those in the 'View' and 'Add-Ins' tabs in Studio.
It can be here:

Solved, thank you for your help Jun 28, 2022

Great comments, thank you everyone!

With your help Stepan, I found the SDLXLIFF TOOLKIT plugin under the 'Add-ins'.

Selecting all the files to open them in multiple file mode and perform the find/replace, was also a great option.

Appreciated the help
