Dec 5, 2013 We have been using WinAlign with no problems for a long time. However, today we tried to use it, and on two separate computers, it crashes at the same moment every time we try to use it. Our process is as follows: - set the source and target languages in the 'General' tab - add the source and target files (in RTF format) in the 'Files' tab - connect the documents and click 'OK' - in the new window, click Alignment Align File Pair(s) We followed this process on both computers multiple times. On one computer (running Windows XP Professional and SDL Trados WinAlign 8.2.0.835), after finishing the Align File Pairs process, WinAlign simply crashes and disappears.
Hunter's WinAlign Alignment software provides mechanics with a tool in a computer environment that they are likely already familiar with. This Windows-based.
On the other computer (running Windows 7 and SDL Trados WinAlign 8.2.0.835), a dialog box pops up with the following error message: TRADOS WinAlign has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. (Close Program) Please let us know if this is a known issue, and if there is anything we can do to fix the problem.
Thanks, David Mickelsen Cultures Connection. Probably the documents Dec 5, 2013 WinAlign is quite unstable with certain documens. I would use the usual SDL file preparation merry-go-round: open your RTF files, save them as.doc and try importing those into WinAlign.

If it still fails, try docx. If it still fails, get back to rtf. If you're getting desperate, copy-paste into a txt file. That will definitely work but it may damage some of the content so it's a last resort. In the longer term, I would suggest that you consider switching to a different aligner.
Pretty much any other tool is better than WinAlign. Edited at 2013-12-05 21:54 GMT. Cultures Connection wrote: Thanks FarkasAndras. I'll try these steps. Do you have any suggestions for other software to use? Thanks, David Easiest first: MemoQ and Studio 2014 have built-in aligners. The one in S2014 replaces WinAlign at long last.
It has an autoaligner (an algorithm that determines which segment goes with which) but it doesn't (yet) have an editing interface. There's also AlignFactory, which is not free but people seem to like it. I never used it. I wrote an open source aligner as a hobby project of sorts, it's pretty popular around here: sourceforge.net/projects/aligner.

However, today we tried to use it, and on two separate computers, it crashes at the same moment every time we try to use it. I know that WinAlign often has problems to deal with files stored on a network drive or server.
The software is not written to deal flawlessly with networked file access. This is why I suggest you make all your files locally available and try again. No guarantee that this will solve the problem but it is at least worth a try, it has already helped a few times.

RULES Please Take a Moment To Read The Rules Before Posting 1) Advice Format. We're not super strict here, but for most of our posts we follow a question-response format. 1a) Bad Advice. No intentionally bad, harmful, or deceptive advice. Only give advice on something you believe to be true. If we feel a piece of advice is particularly reckless, dangerous, or extremely unhelpful it maybe removed If a post or comment is provided that is not a response to a question, the post may be removed. Please report bad advice to the mod team.
2) Courteous and Professional. Keep discussion friendly, civil, courteous, and professional. We're here to help so being rude won't get you very far. The same goes for assuming that a shop is trying to 'rip you off.' It's okay to ask for a second opinion, openly accusing your mechanic of trying to fleece you is something different. Remember the golden rule: If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. Those who demonstrate they cannot follow the rules will be warned and posts removed.
Those who continually cause issue will be removed 2a) One Incident per Thread. Be sure to post only one vehicle/problem/incident per thread, and only post once.
If you didn't get an answer the first time, or you don't like the answer you got that does not mean you post it again. 2b) Updates are allowed, provided it is properly marked as an Update or similar. 3) Stay On Topic: If it's got wheels, treads, floats, flies, or has an engine it's we'll do our best to help. We're pretty flexible and we even enjoy a bit of humor now and again. 3a) Make/Model/Year. All posts must include the make/model/year in the title or body of the post.
If that isn't available, provide all you know and explain why. All posts without this information may be subject to being removed. 3b) Any off topic posts must be flagged Meta, N/A, or similar. 4) Spam/Self-Promotion/Improper Linking/advertisements. Linking to outside content is generally not allowed, unless it's germane to the current discussion. We allow links, pictures, video, or audio file to help diagnose your problem.
Linking for the purposes of promotion (eg offers/coupons/self blog posts/youtube/advertisements/how to) is strictly prohibited and will result in a permanent ban. This is a zero tolerance policy.
This isnt a place to post your youtube channel 5) Mark Solved. When the problem is 'solved' please click the button under your post marked 'Is this solved? Click here' and select the option for Solved and save. This will allow people to filter out posts that have already been resolved so they can move on to other posts that still need assistance. 6) Personal Information. Sharing personal information, or specifics on is not allowed. If you are making a Second Opinion post, then please do not name the shops specifically.
The post will be deleted, this is not a review forum for specific shops. 7) Body Work. Is a sub for mechanical questions. Body work questions regarding paint, dents, dings or accident related damages or other bodywork related issues should be posted in If you want an estimate you should take the car to a qualified body shop as they would know best what it will cost in your area and how to fix the damages.
If you have insurance questions please ask in RIP-OFFS, SCAMS, & SECOND OPINIONS It is not against the rules if you are asking about a second opinion on a quote/repair from a shop. However, please observe rule #1 when asking for a second opinion. It is considered rude to ask, “Is the shop trying to fleece/rip me off?” You wouldn’t ask “Why are all cops pigs?” on, ask about Creationism on, or talk about vaccines causing autism on. Generally there is a good reason why a repair costs what it does. We are more than happy to help you figure out why a shop wants to charge you for a repair, and we will tell you if it is unusually high. We are also happy to advise on how you can save money at the shop. Please read the on the subject for details.
IMPORTANT Understand that the assistance you receive is ADVICE ONLY and is given with the understanding that the giver assumes no liability for any damages that occur as a direct or indirect result. It is impossible for a mechanic to diagnose your problem accurately without seeing/hearing the problem with his own senses. Any advice you receive you must use AT YOUR OWN RISK. OUR PARTNER SUBREDDITS:. I have a Hunter P411 alignment machine which is run by a somewhat normal Windows 95 computer. Trouble is, the Win95 startup files got corrupted somehow and now I'm supposed to reinstall the operating system to fix it. I'm worried that once I do that the system files for the Winalign software will disappear.
I do have some disks and a CD which may or may not be the entire installation. It was preinstalled when I purchased it. I have another PC that has the same specs from a simliar alignment machine and already has the Winalign software on it and I tried swapping it but it stops with an error saying some Hunter Keys are not authorized (whatever that means).
Anybody out there that can give me some ideas? If you have the original install media for WinAlign, then you shouldn't have any issues installing it on the fresh install of Windows 95. I'd highly suggest going to Windows 98 SE as it's much more stable and shouldn't have any compatibility issues with WinAlign. You could test this in a virtual machine like VirtualBox which helps you create a 'imaginary' computer setup on modern-day equipment. Another option, rather than worrying abour losing your current setup, you could attempt repair your Windows 95 install. There are many automated tools available online to fix startup issues. Use Google to search for the error you're getting during startup to help you establish what is wrong and what tools you'll need.
This will take more time than just reinstalling Windows, but you won't have to reinstall or configure anything you already have installed.
