Disabling the Lookup function in Trados

In order to prevent excessive character usage when working on preranslated files, you can disable the Lookup function in Trados. Please note that disabling the Lookup function will not allow for interactive search in MT in the pretranslated files for the segments with confirmed status, the segments with translation that was pulled from the TM, and for the segments pretranslated with translation from MT using the settings you have chosen (70% match and higher). You will still be getting translations from MT for the segments that are unconfirmed, with no translation from the TM and for the matches 70% and below.

To disable the Lookup function, you need to open Trados and choose File - Options in Trados menu. 

The options highlighted in yellow in the following images should be unchecked. These settings should prevent duplicate translation.

Editor - Automation section. Uncheck the checkbox Perform automated translation lookup on confirmed segments.

...

Auto-suggest - Translation Memory and Automated Translation section. Uncheck the checkbox Automated translations.

...

Note

Very important settings:

Language Pairs - All Language Pairs - Translation Memory and Automated Translation - Search section. Uncheck the checkbox Look up segments in MT even if a TM match has been found.
