Master file language overwrite
Hello, I have accidentally saved the master file after importing a translation. Now I don't have an English master file anymore. I tried importing the English export xlf and even though I get the message that it is successfully imported it does not revert back to English. Anyone who knows how to solve this?

If you use OneDrive, Dropbox, or a Teams drive, right-click the file and select Version History to restore a version from before the import. Your software likely isn't reverting because it sees the English in the .xlf as the source and the current translation as the target. Open your English .xlf in a text editor (like Notepad). Use Find/Replace to ensure the English text is inside the <target> tags, not just the <source> tags, then re-import.
