Switching keyboard layout with Win32 API message hangs Illustrator.
When I switch the keyboard layout to non-English, using the Win32 API SendMessage/PostMessage WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST (0x50), Illustrator crashes.

This problem is reportedly fixed in the latest Beta Build 30.5.0.18. You can update and test if it’s truly gone.
However, please not there are some known issues with this particular build:
- Opening recent files from Home Screen Recent section is not working (opening recent files from File > Open Recent Files works fine).
- Generative Expand does not open its own HUD when used after Generate Vector, Generative Shape Fill, or Sketch to Vector. Instead, the previous tool's HUD is displayed and Generative Expand remains inaccessible. Workaround: Ungroup the generative content first, then apply Generative Expand.
- Half of Astute Graphics plugins can’t get loaded. Both teams are now aware of the problem.
Comment back if the bug still persists for you.

Adobe Illustrator 2025 ver 29.8.1.2. The bug is here again.

The issue was fixed in Illustrator 2024 and worked fine in version 28.7.2. However, it is broken again in Illustrator 2025, including version 29.3.1, where Illustrator keeps crashing.
