So I'm getting the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on the language select dialog when I'm trying to start a new project on Trados 2017 Freelance on Windows 10. As far as I know, everything is up to date, and this is the first time this has happened, but I'll tell you what, being unable to create a project is certainly somewhat of a problem right now. I've linked the error log in hopes that someone might be able to help, because it's 9pm and this bloody project is due at noon tomorrow.

Are you getting the error when trying to create a new project based on another one? If that is so, it's a bug, and I've already reported it to SDL Support.
Their suggested workaround (until the bug is fixed) is to either use one of the existing templates, or create a new template based on a previous project (in the Projects view in Studio, select the project you want to create a template from, right click, and select "Create Project Template").
