Where do I find the .sldxppx file when I, in MemoQ, choose "Export (stored path)"?

I chose to complete the whole SDL Trados Studio project in my own MemoQ Translator Pro but the only option to get a return package generated is to choose the option "Export (stored path)", and now I don't know from where I can retrieve the .sldxppx file.

Change export path is greyed-out (not selectable) May 25, 2022

I could have selected Change export path to view the current default export path and then retrieved my SDL Trados Studio return package. But it's greyed-out so I can't select that option.

Same as import folder May 25, 2022

memoQ exports it to the same folder the project was imported from unless you change the path.

Shouldn't that be... May 26, 2022

...the sdlrpx file? The package you receive is the sdlppx. As the previous poster said, the prx (return package) is saved back to wherever the ppx came from. If the files in the relevant folder are listed alphabetically, it will appear directly below the ppx file you received to work on. It may not have the MemoQ icon, but if you hover your cursor over the file name, you should see 'Type: SDLPRX file'.

You should not use the Change Export Path command. Use 'Export (Stored Path)' instead. It will automatically create an sdlrpx file in the same folder as mentioned above.
