without asking me my PC upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 and while still working fine under Windows 8, MemoQ is not running any more in Windows 8.1, i.e. the software starts initializing but doesn't get to an end, not even after hours of waiting. No error messages, nothing.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Reinstall? Feb 20, 2015

Did you try to reinstall memoQ? (More precisely: uninstall it and then install again.) Theoretically all your work should stay untouched but it's always a good idea to have backup, especially before a reinstall. (On separate media of course - external HDD, a file hosting service, DVD, whatever.)
