Hopefully someone can help me with this conundrum. My system drive went belly up, and I had to reinstall everything. Luckily my work files were on another drive, including memoQ translation memories.

Why do you think they are useless? Sep 17, 2015

Can't you use them?
Try 'Register local'. In memoQ, this means 'browse and open a TM'.
If you can see your TM in the memoQ list of TMs, but it does not work, you can try 'Repair resource'.
(Both commands are invoked from View tab - Translation Memories option.)
