For information on all hotfixes and enhancements included in the cumulative updates for SDL Trados Studio 2019, see the following list.
Cumulative Update 1 for SDL Trados Studio 2019 (Build 15.0.1.36320, released on 27 September 2018)
Important note: With this cumulative update, we have moved away from the previous approach of applying patches - i.e. using a Microsoft Patch file (.msp) - to using a full installer - .exe files installing several Microsoft Installer (.msi) files. With this method, we fully replace an existing installation rather than patch it. The installer will be downloaded via the AutoUpdate feature as before, so nothing changes from that perspective. Once fully downloaded, the installer (.exe) will launch and update your Trados Studio 2019 installation with the fixes and enhancements listed below. This will take roughly the same time as installing Trados Studio from scratch. For more information on the AutoUpdate process, see Downloading and Installing Cumulative Updates below.

Downloading and Installing Cumulative Updates
A cumulative update is automatically applied when you use the AutoUpdate functionality available in SDL Trados Studio. AutoUpdate is turned on by default, so you will automatically be notified of the update as soon as it is available. Follow the on-screen instructions to download and apply the update.
NOTE: Applying the update may take some time, as the SDL Trados Studio installation fully replaces the previously installed version. As a rule of thumb, applying the update will take roughly the same time as installing the application originally. SDL recommends that you use AutoUpdate. However, you can also apply the patch manually, as follows:
- Close SDL Trados Studio 2019.
- Download the ZIP file SDLTradosStudio2019_CU1_36320.zip from our FTP site (Username: sdlpatches, password: 5dlpatch35).
- The ZIP file contains an .exe file. Extract this file to a temporary folder of your choice, such as C:\temp. This .exe file applies to all editions of SDL Trados Studio 2019.
- Double-click the .exe file. This will install the latest release and replace as well as update the files in the SDL Trados Studio 2019 installation folder as appropriate.
After the update release has been installed and SDL Trados Studio or your PC restarted, the issues described in this article should no longer occur.
