I have a TM with EN-US source language. That time I just set it by default and now I have to translate the files with EN-UK as a source language. The subject and terminology are very similar so I would like to use my TM for these files. How can I change EN-US to EN-UK?
I tried to "replace all" in exported txt file, but it looks like this will take few hours.

Export it, create a new TM with correct language setting and import Jan 14, 2006

You can export your old TM, create a new TM with the new language settings and import your old TM. Language settings should now be correct.
