If your memoQ today tells you to update and you are at version 8.3.5, don't update: there is a huge bug in version 8.3.6: filtering for status no longer works at all.

If you have already updated, or if your program is set to automatically update, then the only thing you can do, I guess, is to install memoQ 2015 and work in that, for the time being.

So, thumbs up to Kilgray for reacting quickly (to an error of their own making)

Update:
They have released 8.3.7 today, which apparently fixes the problem.
