Hmmm ... quite possible that my version of TW is too old. I actually
figured out that I don't see that string anywhere and searching from
the end of document doesn't work either.

I thought it meant that Acrobat has locked the file for writing. So
the string means "The action that you are trying to perform doesn't
work because PDF file is locked?" (When would PDF be locked when
processed with TeX? Or could one simply open any PDF document and the
message would only come up in that particular case?)

I see them highlighted anyway. And if I press that, nothing happens.

I have tried all of these, but nothing helps.

Wait ... there's actually only one way to get it working. If I first
open German translation as read-only and the Slovenian translation
after that, it starts working (I mean: I see German menus in that
window). Open recent won't work. If I only load Slovenian translation
it won't work either.
