It happen with Trados sometime. You can use Word's macros. Press Alt+F8, in opened list find macros tw4winClean.Main and start one. It's very reliable method.

Be aware, that cleaning in this way DOES NOT update your TM, so you should update all changed segments by opening and closing them in Word with new translation prior to cleanup with this method.
This type of error is often due to damaged tags as a result of manual corrections. That's why it's recommended to either open segments for post-translation editing, or to display hidden text when editing, to avoid inadvertently damaging Trados tags.
