Hello, I'm working on MemoQ v.9.3 on a local project created by me and the first segment appears crossed out in red in the target part. It is like disabled. I can't work on it or insert any text. The target part has red borders and red diagonal lines crossing it.

I would nevertheless recommend to upgrade to the latest version (currently 9.10).
